Chicago Blackhawks (18-18-5, 41 points, 5th Central)

The Blue Jackets return to Nationwide Arena Saturday night to face the Chicago Blackhawks, with hopefully a different result than Thursday’s loss against Tampa. To the naked eye, the Blue Jackets seemed to play well Thursday. Tampa just played better. The Blue Jackets were moving the puck, had some nice chances, but unfortunately the first period dug too deep a hole. It was a treat to see a professional hockey game with so much scoring; too bad the majority wasn’t ours.
