The young defensemen of the Chicago Blackhawks have two more preseason games to earn their spot on the opening night roster.
The Chicago Blackhawks were back on the United Center ice for the first time since last April. The Detroit Red Wings were not kind houseguests, as they swept the two-game preseason series by beating the Blackhawks 3-1.
It wasn’t an awful effort by the Blackhawks. They played well at 5-on-5, but went 0-for-6 on the power play.
