WINNIPEG — Corey Crawford said it was the best game the Chicago Blackhawks have played this season. Teammates Patrick Kane and Nick Schmaltz agreed.
The trio played a big role Thursday as the Blackhawks extended their season-high winning streak to four games with a 5-1 victory over the Winnipeg Jets.
Kane and Schmaltz each had a goal and an assist and Crawford made 27 saves for the Blackhawks (16-11-5).
Vinnie Hinostroza, Tommy Wingels and Michal Kempny also had goals for the visitors, who scored on their first, second and fifth shots of the game.
