Blackhawks game day

Blackhawks game day

Blackhawks vs. Nashville Predators at Bridgestone Arena, 7 p.m.

TV: Comcast SportsNet

Radio: WGN-AM 720

The skinny: The Hawks return where they suffered their worst loss of the season, 7-2 to the Predators on Nov. 17. That’s the same night they lost goalie Nikolai Khabibulin to a leg injury. Bryan Bickell was activated off injured reserve Monday and Jeremy Morin was returned to Rockford. Antti Raanta makes his fifth straight start, likely against former Hawks farmhand Carter Hutton.

Next: Vancouver Canucks at the United Center, 7 p.m. Friday.
