The Blackhawks have finished last in the Central Division each of the last two years. Tyler Bertuzzi and Teuvo Teravainen should provide more impact after Chicago finished last season with an NHL-low 178 goals.

Veteran striker Taylor Hall should also help in his return from a knee injury. Alec Martinez complements the team’s experienced defenders and Laurent Brossoit is a significant improvement behind Petr Mrazek in goal.
