The Blackhawks get Drake Caggiula back tonight after he missed Game 2 on a one-game suspension for a head shot on Tyler Ennis. Caggiula watched the game from upstairs in the Blackhawks’ management suite, and quickly figured out what makes all of us media types so smart.
On a team that doesn’t have Andrew Shaw, who is out for the season with concussion issues, Caggiula is the ‘Hawks most physical forward. And against his old team, he admits there are some words flying around out there as well. “You want to score first, no question,” he said. “It’s tough to chase the game, to come from behind. And it gives them belief that they’re doing the right things. Obviously giving McDavid an early goal isn’t something we want to do.”
“Leon gets judged on points a lot because he’s the leading scorer in the league,” Tippett said. “But he does a lot more for us than that. We’re asking him to do some things that aren’t about points, but about making sure we play a complete game. He’s been a solid player for us.”
