Blackhawks Lineup

Duncan Keith will return to the Blackhawks’ lineup on Friday, providing a needed boost to a Chicago defensive corps that’s been rather green in his absence. It remains to be seen who will exit the lineup to accommodate his presence, but we should find out after Friday’s morning skate. Meanwhile, veteran defenseman Christian Ehrhoff also has a chance to get into Chicago’s lineup for Game 2.
