Locked On Blackhawks - Daily Podcast On The Chicago Blackhawks

Friday's episode starts with a recap of the Chicago Blackhawks lousy, flat-out embarrassing 6-0 loss to the Utah Mammoth, quickly moving to 0-2-0 in the 2026-27 regular season. Host Jack Bushman breaks down the Blackhawks' biggest issues from their first two games, including faulty forward lines and defensive combinations, poor defensive-zone coverage and passing, no physicality, and a lack of cohesion within the group. Bushman also discusses why it's been such an unacceptable start under head coach Jeff Blashill. The episode concludes with a preview of the 2026-27 college hockey season, which begins on Friday night. All that and more on Locked On Blackhawks. Part of the Locked On Podcast Network. Your Team.
