Some news and notes ahead of the game on Monday night between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Anaheim Ducks.
There were no official lines rushes at the morning skate in Anaheim for the Blackhawks, but there will definitely be some changes with the trade of Jack Johnson to the Colorado Avalanche as well as Jake McCabe and Sam Lafferty to the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Philipp Kurashev was also absent at practice and question for Monday night thanks to a non-COVID illness.
