Connor Bedard showcased his skill with a remarkable goal from a challenging angle, helping the Chicago Blackhawks secure a 4-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning. The game saw contributions from Landon Slaggert, Ryan Donato, and Teuvo Teravainen, marking Chicago's third win in 18 attempts after trailing at the start. Arvid Soderblom stood out with 34 saves, while Jonas Johansson managed 16 saves for Tampa Bay, who struggled without their key goalie, Andrei Vasilevskiy.

The Blackhawks broke a seven-game losing streak on the road, earning their first win since December 9 against the New York Rangers. With this performance, they managed to win against the Lightning in regulation for only the second time in the last 16 encounters between the teams.
