The Hawks play game two of a six-game trip tonight in Dallas while a circus takes over the United Center for two weeks. Overtime games had been a nightmare for the Blackhawks, especially those that had gone to the shootout. Tuesday night's opener to a six-game road trip, however, changed all that.
The Hawks went to the shootout for the fifth time and made it look easy. Jonathan Toews and Patrick Sharp scored as the Hawks' first two shooters and goaltender Nikolai Khabibulin, who had been 0-3 in shootouts in an otherwise-strong start to the season, blocked tries by Kyle Turris and Peter Mueller as the Hawks took a 3-2 win over the Phoenix Coyotes.
