The Chicago Blackhawks showed some fight last night, can it last?

The hit, which Bertuzzi took offense to led to Bertuzzi, and Kurashev teaming up on Peyton Krebs, who was the offender.

During Bertuzzi's and Kurashev's retribution, tensions flared as the brawl would go from three men on the ice to a total of ten engaging in the line brawl. In a scene that wouldn't be too far-fetched from the movies.

The score at this point was 3-2, Sabres, and with two Sabres being sent to the penalty box, and three Blackhawks heading there as well, it didn't look too great for the Blackhawks.

The Sabres would take advantage of the error and score a 4th goal while the Blackhawks would empty the net to try and score with a 6-5 man advantage.

Dylan Cozens would assist on the goal scored by Ryan McLeod as the Sabres would defeat the Blackhawks 4-2.

While there's something to be said of defending your teammates, you have to wonder if the Blackhawks and Sabres players who decided to give in to emotion instead of playing hockey are going to get the gift of a Bagskate next practice.

The Blackhawk's shortcomings were exposed during the game, as Arvid Soderblom faced 21 shots, saving 18 of those.

The defense wasn't as good as it could've been last night, while the offense wasn't firing on all cylinders like it was in Edmonton.

Is it another case of being too complacent against bad teams?

Either way, the Blackhawks need to focus on playing hockey instead of challenging every clean hit like they did last night.

Craig Smith had 2 goals last night, and Lukas Reichel had 2 points, as they were the drivers of offense for the Hawks.
