Chicago has turned their season around since Denis Savard took the coaching reins. Tonight the Blackhawks hit the road to take on the St. Louis Blues at the Savvis Center. Look for the Hawks to keep the Blues' losing streak in tact as they skate to the win as favorites.

The Blackhawks (11-12-5) have won four of their last seven games, with the three losses coming either in overtime or in shootouts. Martin Havlat has scored five points in the last two games for Chicago, and leads the Hawks with 10 goals on the season.
