Morning Bag Skate: Blackhawks wrap up road trip with 4-1 win over Panthers

The Chicago Blackhawks concluded their three-game road trip in a dominant fashion Saturday night in an assertive 4-1 over the Florida Panthers. Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane, Brandon Saad, and John Hayden all contributed goals, while Corey Crawford continued to prove his worth by saving 37-of-38 shots.

The Hawks will have a little bit of time to recuperate before getting back on the ice Monday night against the Anaheim Ducks at the United Center. Puck drop is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. CT and will air on CSN Chicago.
