Morning Bag Skate: Anisimov extends point streak in Blackhawks’ 3rd straight win
Our daily look at Blackhawks news and the happenings around the hockey world.
Artem Anisimov has an NHL career-high eight-game point streak after he had a goal and an assist in a 5-1 Chicago Blackhawks win against the Calgary Flames on Tuesday at United Center.
Patrick Kane had a three-point night with a goal and two assists, and Corey Crawford made 33 saves for the Hawks (6-3-1), who won their third straight game and fourth in the past five.
Meanwhile, the Cubs blasted Cleveland in Game 6 of the World Series of the World Serito force a Game 7. Pretty good night in Chicago sports, and here’s hoping it continues Wednesday night in Cleveland.
