Here it is! Get our your day planners and pens, here’s the Chicago Blackhawks playoff schedule; with television assignments. The Blackhawks certainly did not finish with a flourish, and essentially limped to the finish line. Hence they’ll enter the postseason a lower seed versus the Nashville Predators.
What about Patrick Kane?
Dont assume that Kaner will fix all the problems for the Chicago Blackhawks. Yes, he’s still in the NHL top 30 in scoring despite missing a quarter of the season, and scoring has been one of the Blackhawks major issues. As you know, he’s been skating and working out with the team.
Despite his progress at practice his timetable for return is uncertain.
Kane’s return could be early in the first round, late in the first round, or in the second round, should the Chicago Blackhawks advance that far.
