Blackhawks' Artem Anisimov: Should return in time for playoffs

Anisimov (lower body) will likely return and play in the playoffs, Mark Lazerus of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Analysis:

The center's respectable 45 points in 64 games were a career high before getting injured. His 2:22 of power-play time per game and eight points on the man advantage will be a huge help to Chicago come playoff time if Anisimov stays on track in his recovery.
