Artemi Panarin scored twice (26th & 27th), and Patrick Kane had three assists as the Chicago Blackhawks earned their 50th win of the season with a 3-1 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets. The win puts the Blackhawks nine points ahead of the idled Minnesota Wild for the top spot in the Central Division and the Western Conference.
Panarin wasted no time to get the Blackhawks on the board as they took advantage of a very early power play and tallied just :32 into the game. Nick Foligno broke a personal nine game goalless streak by tying the game at 1 with under three minutes remaining in the period.

The game stayed close as Corey Crawford (32 saves) and Bobrovsky traded saves until Panarin scored an empty-netter at the end to seal the victory.
