#Isles to the kill again

#Isles get on a rush but have six guys on the ice. Duclair will sit for it with 4:56 to go in the first.

Good news was that all six got up the ice. Bad news is that's very illegal.

#Isles get hemmed again after a few flubs on breakouts. Schaefer doesn't get o-zone time because of it.

Eklund is always moving his feet. Doesn't take a second off. #Isles

#Isles get the kill. #Blackhawks couldn't connect on two backdoor tries where they got inside position.

#Isles to the PK as Duclair goes off for goalie interference with 12:34 to go in the first.

#Isles to the kill

#Isles can't score on their PP. Schenn with a strong shot but Soderblom got his glove on it. Duclair in low slot fed Ritchie for a one-timer but the pass was a bit soft and so was the shot. Soderblom got over to get his pad on it.

#Isles PP1:

Schaefer-Ritchie-Schenn-Horvat-Palmieri

#Isles going to the PP with 14:37 to go in the first. Kaiser for hooking. Schenn drew it off a rush chance.
