Friday's episode begins with a recap of the Chicago Blackhawks' 3-1 loss to the Dallas Stars, as they lose both games of their mid-week back-to-back after winning two consecutive games for the first time this season over the weekend. Host Jack Bushman breaks down the Blackhawks' lackluster opening 40 minutes, coach Luke Richardson hitting the blender with his forward lines, and what needs to happen to get Connor Bedard more looks at even strength. The episode concludes with a mini preview of Sunday's matchup at the United Center with the Minnesota Wild. All that and more on Locked On Blackhawks. Part of the Locked On Podcast Network.
