Dutch Gretzky made his first goal as a member of the Chicago Blackhawks count.
Dale Weise bagged his first goal since being acquired from the Montreal Canadiens, in Game 6 against the St. Louis Blues, and the marker was a big one. It turned out to be the game-winner - and the third of five goals in a row - forcing a Game 7 on Monday night.
Weise is not only a goal scorer but a title holder:

"It's special," Weise said about being a Blackhawk. "It's a special group."
Game 7 on Monday night at 8:30 p.m. ET is going to be special, too.
