Blackhawks game day
Minnesota Wild at the United Center, 7:30 p.m.
TV: Comcast SportsNet
Radio: WGN 720-AM
What to watch: The Wild was first in the Western Conference when the Hawks last played Minnesota on Dec. 14. What followed was a 1-8-3 tailspin that dropped the Wild to 12th; it was seventh in the West after Tuesday’s 5-4 win over San Jose. Minnesota has the second-worst offense in the West with 101 goals and has scored 2 or more in just three of its last 13 games. Marc-Andre Bergeron and Guillaume Latendress are out with concussions.
Season series: Hawks lead 1-0.
Next: Detroit Red Wings at Joe Louis Arena, 11:30 a.m. Saturday.
