The Blackhawks added two more goals in the second period to extend their lead over the Dallas Stars to 5-1 after two periods tonight. Artem Anisimov was front and center in the middle frame, as he added a shorthanded goal midway through the period — the second shorty of the night for Chicago — and an assist on a Patrick Kane goal late in the period. Anisimov now has four points on the night. The Hawks will take the four goal lead into the third period.
Time to close this one out. Discuss the third period below. Let’s go Hawks!
