The
Chicago Blackhawks' bid for a fifth consecutive win highlights the NHL's three-game schedule Sunday.
Chicago, which sits atop the Central Division at 20-8-4, will face the
Calgary Flames at 7 p.m. ET at the United Center.
Ray Emery has been between the pipes for each of the Blackhawks' four straight wins and is now 8-1-2 on the season. Calgary sits in third place in the Northwest Division at 14-14-4 after Friday's 3-2 shootout loss at Florida.
Sunday's action gets under way at 5 p.m. ET, when the Panthers host the
Carolina Hurricanes at the BankAtlantic Center.
Also at 7 p.m. ET, the
St. Louis Blues will look to bounce back from Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to Nashville as they face the
Columbus Blue Jackets at the Scottrade Center. Columbus (9-19-4) suffered a 3-2 loss on home ice to the
Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday night.
