The Blackhawks are back in Chicago after a four-game road trip to host the Ducks on Tuesday at United Center.
Chicago (29-28-8) finished its road trip with two wins against the Lightning and Panthers, but a 5-7-2 record in February has decimated the Blackhawks’ playoff to 8-percent, according to Dom Luszczyszyn’s model on The Athletic.
Although the Blackhawks’ postseason aspirations are on the verge of disappearing entirely, Chicago’s work ethic and resilience haven’t faltered. Corey Crawford, Duncan Keith, Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane have been vocal about maintaining professionalism when it comes to game preparation, an up beat attitude and a never quit mentality.
