- Chicago won 2-0 behind Spencer Knight’s 32-save shutout and Jason Dickinson’s second-period goal, halting the Blackhawks’ three-game skid.
- Connor Bedard secured the victory with an empty-net goal, his first since returning from a right shoulder injury.
- Winnipeg’s regulation loss ended a five-game point streak and left the Jets three points behind the Blackhawks in the standings.
- After extended absences for long COVID–related issues, Toews arrived on a recent scoring surge but was held without a point in a little over 18 minutes.
