It’s the return of the Dach as the Chicago Blackhawks take on the Montreal Canadiens on Black Friday.
In this matinee game, the Blackhawks will host former No. 3 pick Kirby Dach, who returns for the first time, as a member of the Canadiens. Dach has scored 17 points in 20 games for Montreal, including four goals. Dach scored just nine goals for the Blackhawks last year in 70 games.
Dach also has two game-winning goals, a stat he only achieved in his rookie year in Chicago. Like many of the cast-off Hawks from this offseason, Dach is enjoying a career — well, it wouldn’t technically be a resurgence — surge as a member of a different team.
