I hope you all enjoyed your Sunday afternoon.
The Chicago Blackhawks did all they could to help you out in their matinee matchup against the Detroit Red Wings. Following Friday night’s 4-1 win, the Blackhawks took game two of the weekend series over the Red Wings 6-2, thanks to a solid performance in net from Kevin Lankinen and an offensive explosion from rookie Pius Suter.

And I’ve got to say, it’s fun watching the Blackhawks when they are clicking. It took a couple games against a bad Red Wings team (and yes, the Blackhawks are also not good), but this Chicago squad played Friday and Sunday with a confidence they did not have on the Florida road trip. I said it during the Lightning games at the start of the season, not every game is going to be against a Stanley Cup contender. The Blackhawks have looked much better
