Blackhawks 5, Maple Leafs 3
Three stars:1. Corey Crawford, Hawks: Made 30 saves and was huge in the third period when his teammates got sloppy.
2. Marian Hossa, Hawks: A goal and an assist.
3. Luke Schenn, Maple Leafs: A goal, assist and 2 blocked shots for the defenseman.
Fingers crossed: Hawks defenseman Duncan Keith will have his hand evaluated Sunday in Florida after getting hit by a shot. Keith missed some shifts late but stayed on the bench, finishing with just 16:25 of ice time.
Never say never: The Hawks have moved within 6 points of first-place Detroit in the Central Division with three games still to play against the Red Wings.
