The Chicago Blackhawks are on the road Thursday night for their second game in five days against the Ottawa Senators. It's a favorable matchup for the 'Hawks against a team that's struggled with possession this season, and hopefully they can pack on a few more goals than they did in Scott Darling's debut on Sunday. He's in goal again, by the way, and could be establishing himself as the new backup.

More importantly, Marian Hossa can crack 1,000 career points -- he's two away -- tonight in Ottawa, where he started his career. That would be pretty sweet.

Go 'Hawks!
