The Blackhawks have been strong in recent games against the Sharks, winning five in a row. Teuvo Teravainen is a key player to watch, with points in six straight games against San Jose (3 goals, 6 assists), including a hat trick on October 27 when he was playing for the Carolina Hurricanes.

Blackhawks Beat Avalanche in last outing

Chicago heads into tonight's game after a 5-2 win over the Colorado Avalanche on Monday. Ryan Donato led the team with two goals and one assist, as his trade value rises.

Chicago Blackhawks forward's hot start to the NHL season is raising his trade value

Ryan Donato tied his career-high with two goals and three points against Colorado, bringing him to six points (5 goals, 1 assist) in eight games this season with the Blackhawks.

He's now fourth in points among Blackhawks players this season, despite being healthy scratched by a scrambling head coach in Luke Richardson. Donato was also physical, tying for the most hits in the game and is second on the team with 20 hits.

The Blackhawks are set for an exciting game tonight in San Jose, sadly there won't be a No. 1 vs No. 1 matchup in Bedard vs Celebrini, both former first overall picks, as Celebrini is injured.
