the midpoint of the second period. Yann Danis replaced Dubnyk and saved 21
shots to earn the victory.
Patrick Kane scored twice and added an assist, while Brent Seabrook, Sheldon
Brookbank and Marian Hossa each lit the lamp once for the Blackhawks, who had

shots in the first frame. Corey Crawford took over between the pipes and
stopped 13-of-16 shots in the setback.
