Hawks’ special teams no longer a liability

CHICAGO – The Blackhawks’ penalty-killing unit proved to be a weakness last season.

Not anymore.

The Hawks’ penalty killers went 6 for 6 Sunday against the Detroit Red Wings and improved to 22 for 23 on the season. By stifling the Wings’ power-play unit, the Hawks earned a 2-1 overtime win and improved to 6-0-0 for the first time in franchise history.
