CHICAGO -- J.F. Berube made an NHL career-high 42 saves for his first win of the season in the Chicago Blackhawks' 3-1 victory against the San Jose Sharks at United Center on Friday.
"It means a lot," said Berube, who signed a two-year contract with the Blackhawks on July 1 and played 15 games with Rockford of the American Hockey League this season. "You always want to have a good impression for your first game. I know what I can do at this level, so it was just a matter of getting the opportunity to play and showing people what I can do."
