The Chicago Blackhawks, on a three-game winning streak with a 15-3-0 record in their past 18 games, will be without forward Marian Hossa, who sustained a lower-body injury in a 2-1 win at the Ottawa Senators on Thursday. Hossa's injury is not serious, coach Joel Quenneville said. Forward Tomas Jurco, acquired from the Detroit Red Wings for a third-round pick in the 2017 NHL Draft on Feb. 24, is expected to play after being a healthy scratch for the past three games. "We wanted him to get comfortable, get confidence, have the puck," Quenneville said. "He's got some skill and we want him to be comfortable out there with the puck. I think he's a little bit more comfortable with how we play, and we're looking forward to getting him in a spot where he can get some ice time and make a contribution.'' Jurco has no points in six games with Chicago. Goaltender Corey Crawford will start after backing up Scott Darling on Thursday. The Blackhawks lead the Minnesota Wild by three points for first place in the Central Division and Western Conference.
