The Chicago Blackhawks have had a tough season so far and are facing the possibility of being eliminated from playoff contention tonight. The team's inconsistent performance, combined with injuries to key players, has left them with zero chance of making the playoffs, the least amount of odds.

Currently, the Blackhawks are in eighth place in the Central Division with 54 points points, while the seventh-place team, the Arizona Coyotes , have 63 points. The Blackhawks would need to win tonight's game against the Coyotes and hope for a series of unlikely outcomes in other games.

#Blackhawks will be eliminated from playoff contention if any of these things happen:
� CHI loss vs ARI in any fashion AND WPG win vs NSH in any fashion

� CHI loss vs ARI in regulation AND WPG loss in OT/SO vs NSH

� CHI loss in regulation AND CGY gain at least a point vs DAL

Despite the odds being against them, the Blackhawks remain focused and determined to give it their all in tonight's game. They know that anything can happen in hockey, and they will be looking to put their best foot forward on the ice.

Ultimately, after the Blackhawks get eliminated, their resilience and determination throughout the season will be something to be proud of.
