Chicago Blackhawks (23-53-6) HC: Luke Richardson Top Performers: Connor Bedard (68 GP, 22-39-61 –44); Philipp Kurashev (18-36-54 –44); Nick Foligno (17-20-37 –29); Jason Dickinson (22-13-35 +4); Seth Jones (8-23-31 –15)
CHI Outlook: This is a team getting Taylor Hall back from the ACL. Adds Tyler Bertuzzi, Teuvo Teravainen, Alec Martinez, Ilya Mikheyev and Pat Maroon. Should be much better, Bedard enters second season. Still work to do. Soderblom (25) made 35 saves in the win over the Oilers. He starts with a 1.98 GAA and .943 SV. Much different below?
Calgary Flames (38-39-5) HC: Ryan Huska Top Performers: Nazem Kadri (29-46-75); Yegor Sharangovich (31-28-59 -29); Blake Coleman (30-24-54 +19); MacKenzie Weegar (20-32-52); Jonathan Huberdeau (12-40-52 –29); Andrew Mangiapane (14-26-40 +7); Mikael Backlund (15-24-39 –4); Rasmus Andersson (9-30-39 –11)
CGY Outlook: The rebuild is in really good shape. I know what that probably means for the next 2-4 seasons, but this fanbase has to be thrilled with the work that Craig Conroy has already done. The picks will be piled up and the talent will be coming. When does Dustin Wolf get his first real look in the NHL? It’s him and Dan Vladar, It’s not a pillar of confidence, but I think you just see what Wolf can eventually do.
Goaltending Matchup: Petr Mrazek (18-31-4, 3.05 GAA, .908 SV, 1 SO); Arvid Soderblom (5-22-2, 3.92 GAA, .880 SV) vs. Dan Vladar (20 GP, 8-9-2, 3.62 GAA, .882 SV); Dustin Wolf (22, 17 GP, 7-7-1, 3.16 GAA, .893 SV)
