The Chicago Blackhawks have been without the services of Jonathan Toews for over a month. As the captain goes, so go the 'Hawks is the conventional wisdom. So why have the 'Hawks been on such a tear?

Chicago has been the hottest team in the Western Conference, going 8-1-1 in their last 10 games following a 5-1 win in Columbus Tuesday night. As the Blackhawks return to the United Center to host Vancouver, they have closed the gap on division rivals Detroit and Nashville.
