Blackhawks game day
St. Louis Blues at the United Center, 11:30 a.m.
TV: Channel 5
Radio: WGN 720-AM
What to watch: If the Hawks are going to catch the Blues for fourth place in the Central Division, it has to start Sunday. The Blues are 10 points ahead of the Hawks, who play their first home game in 26 days. The Hawks have won two straight after their nine-game losing streak. Blues goalie Jaroslav Halak missed Saturday’s win over Minnesota with the flu, which makes Brian Elliott the likely starter. Elliott shut out Minnesota 4-0 on Saturday, facing only 13 shots. The Blues lead the NHL with fewest shots allowed per game.
Season series: Tied at 1-1
Next: Detroit Red Wings at the United Center, 7 p.m. Tuesday.
