Canucks 5, Blackhawks 4 (OT) – Recap
- Updated: February 12, 2015
The United Center was the site for Wednesday’s game between the Blackhawks and the Vancouver Canucks. The Blackhawks, coming off a shootout loss to the Arizona Coyotes, welcomed Kris Versteeg back to the lineup Wednesday. Versteeg had been out since suffering a broken hand on New Years’ Day in the Winter Classic against the Washington Capitals. To make room on the roster to activate Versteeg from injured reserve, the Hawks sent forward Joakim Nordstrom to Rockford. I found it a bit odd that Versteeg started out the game in the #3RW spot on a line with Bryan Bickell and Andrew Shaw as opposed to the #2LW spot on a line with Brad Richards and Patrick Kane (the PB&K line), a line that saw a good deal of success prior to Versteeg’s injury. Although they didn’t start the game together, the PB&K line would end up playing together starting in the second period.
The Hawks did not have a great first period, committing a lot of turnovers and giving up a lot of chances to the Canucks. However, Corey Crawford stopped all 12 shots he faced. At the other end, the Canucks did a good job of limiting chances for the Blackhawks. The Hawks did get a couple of really good chances, first with Richards and Kane on a 2-on-1, where, after receiving a pass from Richards, Kane waited for Patrick Sharp to join the play and passed to him, but this proved to be one pass too many, and the Hawks remained scoreless. Later on, with the period almost over, Kane had a chance on a breakaway, but his attempt was stopped by Eddie Lack, and after twenty minutes, we were as we began.
The Hawks would score the game’s first goal just under a minute into the second period when Dan Hamhuis broke up a pass by Kane intended for Richards, and ended up tipping the puck into his own net. Kane would be credited with the goal, his 27th of the season. The Canucks would tie the game a little under four minutes later, when another turnover led to a 3-on-1 for the Canucks and Linden Vey put the puck past Crawford and into the net. Just over two minutes after tying the game, the Canucks took the lead after Crawford couldn’t control a Vancouver shot, David Rundblad whiffed on the play, and Bo Horvat put the puck into the net. Things would continue to go Vancouver’s way when they got the first power play of the game after Niklas Hjalmarsson shot the puck over the glass for a delay of game. The Hawks would kill of the penalty, though. Though they came up empty on the power play, the Canucks would score at even strength 11:19 into the period when Luca Sbisa blasted a shot that beat Crawford through the five-hole to give the Canucks a 3-1 lead. The Hawks would get their first power play of the night just under sixteen minutes into the second period when Henrik Sedin was sent off for tripping Jonathan Toews. The Hawks would come up empty on the power play, but the man advantage did swing the momentum in their favor. Following the penalty, the Hawks picked up their play, testing Lack a few times, but nothing got past him and we would head to the second intermission with the score 3-1 Vancouver.
The Hawks played well early on in the third, getting chances, though none got past Lack. They would go on the man advantage just under three minutes into the period when the Canucks were called for too many men on the ice. The Hawks would get a couple chances on the power play, but ultimately came up empty. The Blackhawks would control the action in the third, while Vancouver seemed much more concerned with playing defense and limiting the Hawks’ opportunities. The Hawks would get another chance on the power play just under twelve-and-a-half minutes in when Daniel Sedin was sent to the penalty box for roughing Marcus Kruger. Twenty seconds into the game, the Hawks converted when Marian Hossa lit the lamp for the fifth time in the last three games, cutting the Vancouver lead to one. The lead would go back to two with just over four-and-a-half left to play when Daniel Sedin beat Crawford. About a minute later, the Hawks would go back on the power play, when Radim Vrbata was sent off for roughing Andrew Shaw. The Hawks would convert on the power play after pulling Crawford in favor of the extra attacker. Duncan Keith’s shot was redirected off of Sbisa, past Lack, and into the net to pull the Hawks within 1. The Hawks tied the game with just under a minute to play when Marian Hossa, who seemingly can do no wrong this week, beat Lack five-hole on a tough angle for his second goal of the night and sixth in his last 3 games. Nobody would score for the rest of the period, and for the second straight game, we would head to overtime, this time tied at 4 goals a side.
In overtime, the Canucks seemed much more interested in playing offense and came away with the overtime win 1:20 in when Daniel Sedin beat Crawford with an assist from his brother Henrik. At the end of the day, the Hawks were lucky to even get the one point, as they were badly outplayed for most of the game.
My picks for 3 stars:
★★★ Patrick Kane, RW, CHI (1 G, 2 A)
★★ Marian Hossa, RW, CHI (2 G)
★ Daniel Sedin, LW, VAN (2 G (GWG))
