Scott Darling and Antti Raanta have been outstanding for both of their teams as of late. Both started where they left off as after 20 minutes, there was no score.

With less than two minutes remaining in the frame, Artem Anisimov scored his 13th goal of the year as he took a pass from a streaking Brian Campbell from behind the net and buried it behind Raanta for a 2-1 lead.

Darling's free agent status at the end of this year has been brought up. When asked about it after tonight's game, he said, "I'm auditioning for the Blackhawks right now. I want to be a Blackhawk." Let's hope that he does. He's building himself up for a nice pay raise at the end of the year.
Notable Mentions: Both, Jonathan Toews and Brent Seabrook returned to the lineup after recovering from injuries. Neither appeared on the score sheet, but they were both effective in their return. Anisimov's GWG now was his 6th of the year. That ties him for the league lead in that category.
