Blackhawks game day

Blackhawks vs. Pittsburgh Penguins at Consol Energy Center, 6:30 p.m. Sunday

TV: NBCSN

Radio: WGN 720-AM

The skinny: The last time these two teams met, the Blackhawks won 5-1 on a chilly, snowy night at Soldier Field. The conditions should be a little more benign Sunday night inside the Consol Center for a pair of Stanley Cup contending teams trying to get back on track. Both the Pens and the Hawks are 4-5-1 in their last 10 games. Patrick Sharp is ninth in the league in goals after scoring his 31st in Friday's loss at Ottawa; he has 14 points in his last 14 games. Corey Crawford is expected to start in net for the Hawks.

Next: Minnesota Wild at the United Center, 7 p.m. Thursday
