Blackhawks vs. Wild Game 4 preview: Chicago goes for the sweep

Let's hope the Hawks get out their brooms and sweep into the Western Conference Finals on Thursday night.

The Blackhawks look to blow out of St. Paul tonight with a second-round series sweep after a huge 1-0 defensive show on Friday night that gave them a commanding 3-0 lead against the Minnesota Wild. After Patrick Kane's first period power play tally gave the Blackhawks a 1-0 lead, the "wild" ride was on. The Hawks put on a defensive clinic while the frustrated Wild threw everything they could at them to no avail.

The Hawks plan to play like they are the ones facing elimination tonight against a Wild team that has not delivered on their potential and will be desperate for a win to extend the series.
