Corey Crawford, once again, was the story as the Hawks shutout the Avs, 4-0 behind Crawford's 38 saves. He needed to be strong early as he stopped 12 shots in the 1st period, before Jonathan Toews and Marian Hossa teamed up to score two quick goals :38 apart, to give the Hawks a lead after the 1st period, 2-0. Colorado had the better play in the period, but Crawford kept them off the scoresheet early.

In the 3rd, Hossa struck for a second time from a stretch pass from Duncan Keith to extend the lead to 3-0. When Coach Joel Quenneville was asked about Hossa's play: "He never really looks like he's slowing down at any time."
Artemi Panarin scored his 5th of the year from a feed from...wait for it...Patrick Kane to finish the scoring.

Notable Mentions: Crawford in his last 3 games: 3-0-0, .990 SV%, 0.33 GAA, 2 SO Artem Anisimov's assist on the first Blackhawks goal, extended his scoring streak to a career best, 9 games (7G 7A).
