Just as the Bears went winless in the preseason and are now undefeated in the regular season, Blackhawks fans shouldn't worry too much about last night's 4-1 loss to the Penguins in Pittsburgh. Neither of the goalies who played last night -- Hannu Toivonen and Alec Richards -- is likely to see any playing time outside of Rockford this season. The loss dropped the Hawks' preseason record to 1-3; they'll next play the Blues on Thursday in St. Louis. There won't be any live TV or radio coverage of that game in Chicago. Here's the recap of last night's game via Sports Network:
↵↵Pittsburgh, PA (Sports Network) - Evgeni Malkin notched a goal and free agent acquisition Paul Martin added to two assists to lead Pittsburgh to a 4-1 win over Chicago in preseason action at CONSOL Energy Arena.↵
↵Mark Letestu, Dustin Jeffrey and Nick Johnson also tallied for the Penguins, who got 21 stops in net from Brent Johnson.↵
↵Kyle Beach recorded the lone goal for the defending Stanley Cup champions.↵
↵Alec Richards yielded a pair of goals on 20 shots to absorb the loss while Hannu Toivonen turned away 17 of the 19 shots he faced.
