The Hawks are back at it on this snowy Tuesday night as they welcome Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers to the Mad House. It was really nice of Mother Nature to make the Oilers feel at home, and if you are heading to the city for this one, drive safe. The Hawks are coming off a gutsy win against the Flames, snapping the 5-game losing streak. It went exactly as we all expected after the news of losing Bedard and Foligno to the IR. Colin Blackwell put up two big goals for the Hawks, and it gave the fans a nice afternoon and let them forget how brutal our injury situation currently is.

Good news for tonight: it looks like the team will be getting some bodies back as Joey Anderson and Taylor Raddysh are expected back in the lineup. Also expected to make his Hawks debut is forward Rem Pitlick, who missed last Sunday's game due to travel issues caused by the weather. In the morning skate, he was skating on the top line and was also taking part in the top powerplay unit. Will these reinforcements be enough to take down the McDavids and the Oilers? Probably not, but just having the guys back is going to be worth it.

That’s going to be it for me. Sorry for the short blog today. Just battling the weather. Puck Drop is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. central and is a Hulu/ESPN Plus exclusive game. As always, let's go Hawks!
