Two games tonight. For some reason they've pushed Montreal-Tampa back a night, so those two teams will be playing both tomorrow and Thursday (while Anaheim-Calgary rests an extra day after tonight's game). Who said schedules had to make sense?

#### [Blackhawks](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/chicago-blackhawks?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) vs. [Wild](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/minnesota-wild?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) 

8:00 EST, NBC, CBC

Chicago is up 2-0 on Minnesota heading into game three. There was a blackout at the Xcel Energy Centre last night and all the ice melted. 

The Wild say there shouldn't be any issues for the game, but Chicago forward [Bryan Bickell](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/56129/bryan-bickell?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) said that the ice was slower than usual following their morning skate.

Crawford gets the start for Chicago and looks to be okay after taking a slap-shot to the head in Game 2\. Dubnyk is starting for Minnesota.

9:30 EST, Sportsnet, USA Network

Anaheim is also up 2-0 and Calgary has not looked good. They got trounced in Game 1 (6-1) and shutout in Game 2 (3-0). We'll see if they can get back into the saddle(dome) tonight. Ha. Perhaps less of a laughing matter: they're playing [Sam Bennett](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/246194/samuel-bennett?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) tonight. This is his 10th game of the season, which means that Calgary will be burning a year off of his ELC. You can read about the pros and cons of playing him over at [Matchsticks and Gasoline](http://www.matchsticksandgasoline.com/2015/5/5/8550317/the-pros-and-cons-of-burning-the-first-year-of-sam-bennetts-elc?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com). [Karri Ramo](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/55069/karri-ramo?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) starts for Calgary after saving 42 of 45 shots in Game 2\. Fredrick Andersen is starting for Anaheim
