Blackhawks Even Series With Shutout Win

After dropping two of their first three games against the Nashville Predators, the Chicago Blackhawks were under some pretty intense scrutiny from the local fans and media. A bit premature, of course, but let's face it, the Predators are a team that's proven they're able to suck the life out of an opposing offense -- including Chicago's, based on the results of the regular season series -- and it's not really a surprise that they're giving the Blackhawks everything they can handle so far.

Still, Chicago managed to silence some of its critics on Thursday by tying the series at two games, thanks to a 3-0 shutout win in Nashville that saw Antti Niemi stop all 33 shots he faced for his second shutout of the playoffs, as the 'Hawks turned the tables somewhat on Nashville in what has been a very defensive, low-scoring series.
