The Chicago Blackhawks play host to one of the bigger NHL games of the night as the Anaheim Ducks are in town Tuesday. It's a matchup of backup goaltenders with Scott Darling and John Gibson, and that could be good news for the many big-name forwards that pepper both rosters. Our first look at Corey Perry and Ryan Getzlaf this year could certainly go a number of ways, some not so good.

So here's your first thread for the night, let's hope the Ducks get bumped from the top of the West.

Go 'Hawks!
