10 observations: Kane, Domi lead Hawks to comeback win over Stars originally appeared on NBC Sports Chicago
DALLAS — The Blackhawks overcame a three-goal deficit to beat the Dallas Stars 4-3 at American Airlines Center on Wednesday.
Here are 10 observations from the win:
1. The Blackhawks won their first game of the season on the second of a back to back. They were 0-8-1 prior to Wednesday and had been outscored 32-13 in the previous nine games.
2. The Blackhawks had a solid first period, and yet still found themselves in a 2-0 hole after giving up two goals in a span of 1:19. The Stars later made it 3-0. It looked like they were going to run away with the game, but the Blackhawks pushed back again by scoring three goals in a span of 7:55 to tie things up. It was a wild swing, especially against one of the best goaltenders in the league in Jake Oettinger.
3. Patrick Kane is on an absolute heater. He scored two goals and added a primary assist in the second period alone, giving him 10 points (seven goals, three assists) over his last four games. What a crazy run he’s on. Think he’s motivated to prove to teams that he’s still a gamebreaker going into the trade deadline?
4. How about the run Max Domi is on, too. He also had a two-goal and three-point effort and extended his point streak to five games. He has 11 points (three goals, eight assists) over that stretch. Just a filthy sauce pass to Kane on his second goal, returning the favor after Kane gave him a beauty about five minutes earlier. Domi, by the way, was also credited with four takeaways.
5. The Stars’ first line of Roope Hintz, Joe Pavelski and Jason Robertson has logged the second-most minutes of any line in the NHL this season, and it’s arguably the league’s best trio. When the three of them are on the ice together, the Stars are outscoring their opponents 36-15, per Natural Stat Trick. The Blackhawks kept them quiet for most of the night. Robertson scored a goal, but it came on the power play,…
