The first period happened. I swear it did. Somehow, 20 minutes of hockey were played around one of the most incredible tributes I’ve ever seen or been fortunate to attend. Both teams put 12 shots on net and had some power play time in the first period, but the hockey took a back seat to Jonathan Toews’ moment.
The Blackhawks were able to get on the board, but Connor Hellebuyck wasn’t giving them much. Hellebuyck made a ridiculous save against a Connor Bedard shot attempt on a Blackhawks power play later in the second that serves as a reminder that he’s elite.
The third period was about as good as you would want from the Blackhawks. Straight forward, defending their butts off. See puck, get puck, do something with puck. When Bedard found the empty net, the United Center lit up.
Star 1: Spencer Knight
The goaltender on the other end of the rink is considered the best on the planet by most people. You know who stepped up his game and played one helluva game? Knight stopped all 33 he faced in the shutout.
Star 2: Jason Dickinson
Dickinson had a unique relationship with Toews when they were teammates. He learned a lot from his former captain. So it wasn’t a shock that he had a strong game tonight. By the end of the second period, Dickinson had won five of seven faceoffs, was on the ice for an 8-2 shot differential favoring the Blackhawks and scored the first goal of the night. His line (with Ryan Donato and Ilya Mikheyev) was really good.

Bedard was feeling it tonight. There were a few flashes of his skating and puck handling as he dangled defenders onto their wallets and ripped a shot. At the end of the second period, Bedard led the Blackhawks with six shot attempts (two on net) and three individual scoring chances. Bedard scored into the empty net for his first goal since returning from injury.

Ryan Greene won half of his team-high 12 faceoffs thru two periods. Oliver Moore‘s speed was a problem for the Jets. He drew a penalty in the first and second period when a defender got beat and, a) Luke Schenn held him in the first, and b) Cole Perfetti tripped him in the second. Landon Slaggert got some run with Moore and Nick Lardis tonight. I kinda like that idea and wouldn’t mind seeing it stick for a bit. Slaggert plays the kind of straight-ahead attacking style the coaches love — and he’s always lurking around the net looking for loose change. The Blackhawks’ power play wasn’t great tonight. They had 82 seconds of a 5-on-3 in the first and got nothing. They had a couple better chances in the second but the goaltender on the other team is an MVP for a reason. You know what’s awesome? Young stars in Chicago supporting each other in other sports. And tonight we had Caleb Williams and Pete-Crow Armstrong sitting on the glass.Caleb Williams and Pete Crow-Armstrong with glass seats at the United Center, and the Chicago crowd goes nuts when they're shown on the video board. #Blackhawks pic.twitter.com/075J3RUEv0
