Blackhawks Secure First Three-Game Win Streak Since 2023 as Seth Jones Nears Return

Chicago's young team shows progress under interim coach Anders Sorensen, with standout performances from Ilya Mikheyev and Teuvo Teräväinen.

The Chicago Blackhawks achieved their first three-game winning streak in nearly two years with a 3-1 victory over the Seattle Kraken at the United Center.
Rookie defenseman Nolan Allan scored his first NHL goal, while Ilya Mikheyev continued his scoring streak with two goals, assisted by Teuvo Teräväinen.
Seth Jones, the team's top defenseman, is expected to return from a foot injury for Saturday's game against the Calgary Flames after adapting to Sorensen's new system.
Interim coach Anders Sorensen has implemented a system emphasizing defensive predictability and offensive involvement, which has helped stabilize the team's performance.
The Blackhawks debuted their vintage-inspired Winter Classic uniforms ahead of their outdoor matchup against the St. Louis Blues on December 31 at Wrigley Field.
