Huet, Blackhawks look for fourth straight victory

Feb 21, 2009 - 1:41 PM Chicago (33-15-8) at Dallas (29-21-7), 2:00 p.m. EST

DALLAS (Ticker) -- Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Cristobal Huet is stepping up in the absence of Nikolai Khabibulin.

Seeking a fourth straight victory, the Blackhawks visit the Dallas Stars on Saturday.

Starting in his fourth consecutive game in place of the injured Khabibulin, Huet made 31 saves to record his third shutout of the season as Chicago defeated the Florida Panthers, 4-0, on Thursday.

The Blackhawks, who have also won seven of their last nine, were propelled by another sparkling effort from captain Jonathan Toews. The 20-year-old has registered four goals and seven points over his last three games.

Dallas, which is seventh in the tight Western Conference standings with 65 points, also enters this contest having played well of late.

Rookie Fabian Brunnstrom scored a goal and set up another as the Stars skated to a 4-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Thursday.

Krystopher Barch, rookie Raymond Sawada and Jere Lehtinen also scored for Dallas, which has won back-to-back contests and 10 of its last 13 games.
