"The Chicago Blackhawks host the Nashville Predators tonight at the United Center and we'll see a couple of changes. Not only will we see changes in the Blackhawks' lineup, but we'll also see the Predators with their new head coach for the first time. Longtime coach Peter Laviolette was fired recently and former New Jersey Devils head coach John Hynes was brought in to replace him. As for the Hawks, head coach Jeremy Colliton told reporters today that Drake Caggiula will return to the lineup tonight. Colliton also announced that Matthew Highmore will draw back in for Dylan Sikura while Slater Koekkoek will suit up and Dennis Gilbert will watch from the press box. Dylan Strome is now listed as day to day according to Colliton. No surprise as Corey Crawford gets the start and he'll likely go up against the struggling Pekka Rinne.Here's a look at tonight's projected lineup:Kubalik - Toews - Caggiula DeBrincat - Dach - Kampf Nylander - Carpenter - Kane Highmore - Smith - Quenneville Keith - Boqvist Gustafsson - Murphy Maatta - Koekkoek Crawford
