I pointed this out in my postgame takeaways, but the Blackhawks’ third line was really good and impactful again yesterday. Jason Dickinson won 14 of 20 faceoffs. Teuvo Teräväinen had two assists in the third period. And Ilya Mikheyev scored the Blackhawks’ final goal. Mikheyev has now scored in four straight games (five goals total). Teräväinen had 10 assists in four games this week.

This is an example of what Nolan Allan has been doing well lately and what I wrote about today. Nothing fancy, just reads the forecheck, retrieves the puck, makes the right pass and it all leads to an exit.Here's my story, too: t.co/jpW04kIpxo pic.twitter.com/ka3ny3tjqf
— Scott Powers (@ByScottPowers) December 21, 2024 Connor Bedard continues to have a strong season despite what the haters might tell you on social media. Saturday was his fourth multi-point game in 11 starts in the month of December. It was also his fourth three-point game of the season. He has 12 points in 11 games for the Blackhawks this month.Connor Bedard Keeps Climbing NHL, #Blackhawks Ranks for Teenagers t.co/B0nFwyYwhj
— Bleacher Nation Blackhawks (@BN_Blackhawks) December 22, 2024 Tyler Bertuzzi scored twice on Saturday, giving him five goals in 11 games in December. He scored five goals in 23 games from the start of the season thru the end of November. So… yeah. He’s hot, too. The Blackhawks likely expected to get 20-25 goals from him this season and I’m fairly confident most fans doubted he would get to 15 a couple short weeks ago. I wanted to take an extra moment to appreciate Ryan Donato standing up for his teammates against Martin Prospisil yesterday. Prospisil took a dirty, high shot at Bedard in the first period and turtled when Nick Foligno asked him to dance. He then took a run at Nazar and hit him high and Donato wasn’t having it. As I said in my postgame notes, there will absolutely be money on the board for him the next time the Flames and Blackhawks play because he got away with a sucker punch on Bertuzzi in the final minutes while the officials had them separated. Classic fake tough guy garbage. We got a first look at some lines for the USA squad heading to the World Juniors next week. Oliver Moore lined up as the third line center with his Minnesota teammate, Brody Ziemer, on his right side.First of two pre-tournament games coming in one hour ?#WorldJuniors home: t.co/2xxnhs1e1gStats: t.co/Eon2fwt8FS pic.twitter.com/4oyw5CcyMZ
