Final
Bruins look to avoid skid against Blackhawks
Mar 7, 2009 - 11:23 AM Chicago (36-17-9) at Boston (42-14-9), 1:00 p.m. ESTBOSTON (Ticker) -- The Boston Bruins look to snap a three-game losing streak when they host the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday.
Leading the Eastern Conference with 93 points, the Bruins' recent swoon has caused them to cough off a healthy lead in the standings. The second-place New Jersey Devils are six points away from pulling even for the top spot.
Boston, which is coming off a 2-1 loss to the Phoenix Coyotes on Thursday, had dropped four in a row from February 7-14.
The Blackhawks, meanwhile, is hoping to build off their 3-2 overtime win over the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday and notch their third straight victory.
After this contest, Chicago will play nine of its next 11 games at home, where it is 17-5-6. The Blackhawks are 19-12-3 on the road this season.
