Status report

Foligno, a forward, is taking a leave of absence from the Blackhawks because of his daughter's upcoming heart surgery. ... Reichel will replace Foligno in the lineup. ... Slaggert has resumed skating but will miss his fifth straight game; the forward could return against the Vancouver Canucks on Friday, Chicago coach Jeff Blashill said. … The Blackhawks are expected to dress 11 forwards and seven defensemen. ... Sundqvist, a forward, has not played this season and will miss his fourth consecutive game, and Toropchenko, a forward, will miss his third straight; each is day to day.
