Taylor Raddysh scored a hat trick against one of the NHL's best teams.
After GM Kyle Davidson traded away Patrick Kane, Max Domi, Sam Lafferty, Jake McCabe and Jack Johnson, many of us figured the Blackhawks were in deep trouble.
Although the Hawks did drop those final three games, coach Luke Richardson almost ventured into the dressing room in Tampa to tell his players how proud of them he was."I don't like going in there very much -- once or twice a year," Richardson said."They don't want to hear, 'We tried hard.' It's the NHL.""I know you guys don't want to hear it," he told them,"but we're proud of how you're playing.
Turns out yes. And not only did the Hawks hold their own, but they pulled off perhaps the biggest upset in the NHL this season with a 6-3 victory. The Hawks then killed off a power play and went up 5-3 when Raddysh scored on the power play with 3:52 remaining. Raddysh then notched the hat trick at 19:15 by scoring into an empty net. He now has a team-leading 20 goals on the season.
It's a group that figures to give most teams a hard time down the stretch thanks to leadership from guys like Murphy, Seth Jones, Jarred Tinordi, Tyler Johnson and others.
