Bedard and Blackhawks Look to Keep Momentum Rolling Against Flames Tonight

CHICAGO – The Chicago Blackhawks, fresh off a dominant 5-2 victory over the Vancouver Canucks, will look to extend their winning streak tonight as they face off against the Calgary Flames. Puck drop is scheduled for 9 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on TVAS, SNW, and CHSN.

The Blackhawks are expected to ice the same lineup that propelled them to victory in Vancouver. Rookie sensation Connor Bedard will center the top line alongside Ryan Greene and Andre Burakovsky. The projected lines also include Teuvo Teravainen centering Frank Nazar and Tyler Bertuzzi. Defensively, the Blackhawks will rely on the pairings of Alex Vlasic with Sam Rinzel, Matt Grzelcyk with Connor Murphy, and Wyatt Kaiser with Artyom Levshunov. Louis Crevier is also expected to play. Spencer Knight and Arvid Soderblom are the expected goalie tandem. Sam Lafferty is scratched, while Laurent Brossoit (hip) and Jason Dickinson (upper body) remain sidelined due to injury.

Across the ice, the Calgary Flames come to town with a slightly less certain lineup. Defenseman Kevin Bahl is a game-time decision after missing the morning skate. If Bahl is unable to play, Yan Kuznetsov, who made his season debut on Wednesday, is expected to draw back into the lineup.

The Flames’ projected lines feature Connor Zary centering Nazem Kadri and Joel Farabee on the top line. Jonathan Huberdeau is slated to play with Morgan Frost and Matt Coronato. Samuel Honzek, Mikael Backlund and Blake Coleman are the third line. Ryan Lomberg is expected to play with Yegor Sharangovich and Adam Klapka. Defensively, the Flames are projected to use the pairings of Kevin Bahl with Rasmus Andersson, Joel Hanley with MacKenzie Weegar, and Brayden Pachal with Zayne Parekh. Dustin Wolf and Devin Cooley are slated as the goalie tandem. Justin Kirkland, Jake Bean, and Kuznetsov are expected to be scratched (pending Bahl’s status), while Martin Pospisil is out with an undisclosed injury.

Flames coach Ryan Huska will likely make a final decision on Bahl’s availability closer to game time. Hockey fans can anticipate an exciting contest as the Blackhawks aim to build on their recent success.
