Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews has just three points and no goals this postseason, and he's taking too much heat for it.
05/20/2013 10:09 Quest for the Cup: Blackhawks and Wings take center stage
There's only one game in the NHL on Monday night and it should be a good one with Chicago and Detroit with their best-of-seven series even at 1-1 heading into the Motor City.
Niklas Kronwall will enter the 2012-13 season as the Wings' top blueliner following the retirement of Nicklas Lidstrom this summer. It's unclear who will skate in Kronwall's pairing, but he should have a larger role on the power play and see the heaviest share of minutes that he's been given in his entire career. Kronwall potted a career-high 15 goals while piling up 36 points over 82 games for the Wings last season, and might be in position to reach the 50-point threshold for the second time as an NHL player with the perfect storm of opportunity and health.
