Bryan Bickell leads the NHL in hits going into Game 3 off the Stanley Cup Western Conference semifinals on Tuesday night.

Entering Tuesday's Game 3 against Calgary, Bickell has accumulated 58 hits in the playoffs, though he has just two assists and no goals.

Analysis:

Bickell racked up 11 hits in Game 1 against the Wild and another dozen in Game 2. Coming into this series, Bickell had Minnesota's number -- in 23 games against the Wild the past three seasons, he's accumulated 15 goals, 20 points and a plus-11 rating, but it appears that 'Hawks coach Joel Quenneville wants him to take a more physical approach right now.
