The Chicago Blackhawks are shaking up their routine, opting for a practice day today, immediately following a road game and travel day.

Luke Richardson, providing insight into the decision, highlighted the players' initiative in making this call.

According to Richardson, the players raised the point that if they took today off, they would end up skating every day from Tuesday to Sunday. In a strategic move to balance their training and recovery, the team decided to hold a practice session today and shift their focus to a gym day tomorrow.

''Luke Richardson said the #Blackhawks decided to have practice today (the day after a road game/travel day) because if they had today off they'd be skating everyday between Tuesday-Sunday. Instead, they'll have a gym day tomorrow
