Blackhawks Overcome Canadiens to End Losing Streak

The Chicago Blackhawks ended a five-game losing streak by defeating the Montreal Canadiens 4-2, with Arvid Soderblom making 38 saves and Nick Foligno scoring twice. Tyler Bertuzzi and Patrick Maroon also contributed goals for the Blackhawks, who had been struggling after a heavy loss to St. Louis. Cole Caufield and Emil Heineman scored for the Canadiens, with Caufield reaching his 20-goal mark for the fourth consecutive season. The Canadiens, who had been performing well recently, were outshot by Chicago despite Soderblom's stellar performance in goal. The game also marked the NHL debut of Colton Dach, younger brother of Canadiens' Kirby Dach, adding a familial rivalry to the match. The Canadiens have seen a resurgence lately, with improvements in their second line and strategic player acquisitions enhancing their performance.
