After a big home win to start the new year against Dallas at the United Center, the Blackhawks start a tough weekend back-to-back in Washington against Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals. The Caps come in just 3-6-1 in their last 10 games and in fourth place in the Atlantic Division, but they have the best goal differential (plus-15) in the division. Go figure.
We’ll see if the Blackhawks can bring the same formula they employed against the Stars into this game and stay warm in the new calendar year.

Can the Blackhawks carry over their strong play against Dallas to a road test in Washington? Secondary scoring is starting to show up for the Blackhawks. Who will find the back of the net tonight? Levshunov continues to improve and show more confidence with each game. Skating against Ovechkin could motivate him a little more tonight.Get Caught Up
Artyom Levshunov is playing the best hockey of his young career right now. He's been fantastic the last two games.The Blackhawks also tweaked his shooting mechanics, which led to a goal last night.Story: t.co/JJikSc2YTn
