Here are four takeaways from the Blackhawks' 1-0 win over the St. Louis Blues at the United Center on Thursday:
1. Jeremy Colliton's first NHL win
For the first time since Oct. 25, the Blackhawks are back in the win column. A weight has been lifted off their shoulders after going winless in their previous eight games (0-6-2).
But it was an extra special night for the Blackhawks, who helped Colliton earn his first victory as an NHL head coach and celebrated by giving him the game puck.
"I’m just here to help them," Colliton said.
