With 1:52 left in the game, on the power play and with their goalie pulled, the Canucks got a big-time goal from their big-time rookie. Elias Petterson scored his 25th goal of the season to tie the game at 3-3.
With 1:39 left in OT, Toews drove to the net and scored to secure the extra point in the standings. Strome recorded the lone assist.
KAN'T BE STOPPED: Every game you can say something about Kane. His remarkable season continued as he extended his point streak to 13 games with a secondary assist on DeBrincat's goal. Kane now has 10 goals and 19 assists during the streak.
GET OTTER HERE:Kane wasn't the only one to extend a streak on the first goal. The former Erie Otters teammates turned NHL linemates Strome and DeBrincat stayed hot as well. With his two-goal night, DeBrincat has a seven-game run going with five goals and seven assists in that span. Strome is now on a three-game streak but has been effective over the last month with 13 points in his last eight games since Jan. 14.
DeBrincat is now the fourth player in Blackhawks history to record multiple point streaks of seven or more games in one season. Eddie Olczyk, Denis Savard and Bobby Hull are the other three.
Strome now has 27 points in 31 games since joining the Blackhawks via trade. He had 16 in 48 appearances with Arizona before that.
KNEEL BEFORE SAAD:Speaking of offensive production… Saad has been great for Chicago of late. He now has six goals in his last eight games.
