Blackhawks Score First Goal In Stadium Series Snowstorm

Patrick Sharp put the Blackhawks on the board at 15:35 of the first period with this one-timer over the shoulder of Marc-André Fleury. The score stands at 1-0 as we begin the second period.

Other than the score, the story of the game is the snow. There is a lot of it. It's accumulating on the players' shoulders.

And it is impeding the puck and making routine passes dangerous and would-be shots passes to no one.

The snow has stopped for the time being, but it is not expected to stay clear for long.
