"Kaiden Guhle scored for the Canadiens (15-17-3), who have lost three in a row (0-2-1) and are 1-5-1 in their past seven.

In their latest victory, a 4-2 win over the Florida Panthers on Tuesday night, they opened the scoring for the first time this season, had a multi-goal lead through much of the nights, and then held off the surging Panthers in the third period to get the win. It the first victory that didn’t require a Chicago comeback and it was over a non-bottom-feeder team, so it felt a bit more impactful. The Blackhawks were still severely out-shot and out-attempted, but they took advantage of the possession they did have.

Oscar Klefbom is expected to be out all season with a shoulder injury. One of the problem areas for the Oilers last season was in net, so they picked up former Toronto Maple Leafs goalie Jack Campbell in free agency after he had back-to-back above average years. Campbell had one bad game out of the five he’s played, dragging his seasonal save-percentage down, but he’s been solid-to-great in his last two performances, including a. 914 save-percentage in the victory over the Penguins.

It really works in his favor. "Guhle ended Vasilevskiy's shutout with 2:39 remaining for the 4-1 final. "It was nice to score, and to get one on the board is good going into tomorrow, " Guhle said. "Maybe we'll have a little bit of a better feeling going into tomorrow. No time to think about this one. "NOTES: Point has scored in six straight home games and has 13 points in his past 13 games.

The Blackhawks are coming off four straight wins, which is unexpected only because the team was explicitly built to tank this season. However, under new head coach Luke Richards, this Chicago team is showing a lot of tenacity to pull out these wins. It might not be sustainable — their shot metrics and expected goals at 5-on-5 are both still near the bottom of the league. But the systematic improvement — especially on defense — is extremely encouraging for potential long-term success beyond this season.

Additionally, Alex Stalock had a fairly immaculate performance in net, stopping 29 of 31 shots; Patrick Kane got his first goal of the season; and the Blackhawks got contributions from players — Taylor Raddysh and Philipp Kurashev — who may be in the team’s long-term plans. But the Oilers will be an interesting test for the scrappy Blackhawks because they haven’t faced a team with such elite superstars since the home opener against the Colorado Avalanche. With Tyler Johnson placed on injured reserve on Thursday morning, Reese Johnson appears to be back on the fourth line while Jujhar Khaira jumps to the second line to replace the injured Johnson — per the morning skate: New #Blackhawks lines this morning:Athanasiou-Domi-KaneKhaira-Toews-RaddyshKurashev-Dickinson-LaffertyBlackwell-Entwistle-R.

Calling All Skeletons: Blackhawks vs. Oilers PreviewThe Chicago Blackhawks head into Thursday night hoping to extend their somewhat unexpected win streak to five games with a victory against the Edmonton Oilers. The Oilers are also trying to extend their own win streak, albeit to three games. They defeated the Pittsburgh Penguins 6-3 Monday night and then narrowly beat the St. Louis Blues 3-1 Wednesday night. The game in Chicago will be their third game in four nights and the final one on a three-game road trip before they return home to Edmonton. In their latest win, it was one of those rare occasions where neither Connor McDavid nor Leon Draisaitl scored, although they did factor into the scoring with secondary assists.

Campbell is likely to be the goalie in net against Chicago as Stuart Skinner played last night in St. Louis. He’ll be the best performing goalie the Blackhawks have faced since the start of the season.

Additionally, Jesse Puljujärvi got his first of the season. The Oilers are still predominantly a top-heavy forward group, as seen by the players who contributed to the win with the Blues, but they’ll get some help from Darnell Nurse (5 points) and Tyson Barrie (3 points) on the backend.
