Connor Bedard had a goal and an assist for the Blackhawks (13-11-6), who were coming off consecutive losses by a combined score of 13-1 at the Los Angeles Kings and Anaheim Ducks on Thursday and Saturday, respectively. Knight got his second shutout of the season and the seventh of his NHL career.<\/p>\n
Igor Shesterkin made 22 saves for the Rangers (15-13-4), who have lost three in a row (0-1-2) and had a four-game point streak end (2-0-2).<\/p>\n
Louis Crevier gave the Blackhawks a 1-0 lead with a short-handed goal at 7:08 of the second period. The defenseman took a pass at the Rangers blue line from Matt Grzelcyk, moved in and put a backhand past Shesterkin on the stick side.<\/p>\n
The Blackhawks had a goal by Ryan Donato overturned at 10:40 after the Rangers challenged for a missed game stoppage and it was determined Chicago forward Colton Dach directed the puck with a hand pass.<\/p>\n
Bedard then extended it to a 2-0 lead at 14:27. Andre Burakovsky drove down the left wing and passed in front to Bedard, where he one-timed the puck over Shesterkin\u2019s glove.<\/p>\n
Tyler Bertuzzi made it 3-0 at 3:52 of the third period, jamming in a rebound at the right post after Shesterkin made a stick save on Ryan Greene\u2019s between-the-legs attempt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Connor Bedard had a goal and an assist for the Blackhawks (13-11-6), who were coming off consecutive losses…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":340876,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[64,63,575,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-340875","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nhl","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-nhl","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340875","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=340875"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340875\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/340876"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=340875"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=340875"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=340875"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
