The Chicago Blackhawks look to end a winless four games streak as they visit a tough place this Wednesday to face the Vancouver Canucks, at 10:30 PM ET at Rogers Arena.

Chicago is second in the Central Division, only behind St. Louis, but the team has lost their last four games in a row (vs. Detroit, Minnesota, Winnipeg and Calgary) and looks confuse about their game.

“They’re a hard-working team, so we expected them to work hard,” Hawks Patrick Kane said after they lost 5-4 against Calgary in overtime. “They always seem to give us a tough game in this building. We had to be ready for it. I thought we did a good job fighting back. It was just a few too many mistakes.”

Vancouver can’t be happy with what’s going on with their team either; they have won only four of the last 14 games, and their coach John Tortorella is suspended.

“It’s hard to win unless your best players are your best players,” said coach Mike Sullivan filling in for suspended Tortorella.

“It’s hard to win consistently. We’ve got to find a way to get our top guys going here. The team relies on them to be more consistent and making contributions on the score sheet, and it’s hard to win in the absence of it.”

Vancouver is 7-3 SU in its last 10 games when playing at home against Chicago, and the total has gone UNDER in 6 of Chicago’s last 7 games when playing Vancouver.
