Frustration may be getting the best of the Chicago Blackhawks, as they finished the second period down 4-0 to the Minnesota Wild, and also down a defenseman who was ejected for a crushing hit.
Michal Rozsival's day at TCF Bank Stadium ended early as he was given a five-minute major for interference and a game misconduct late in the second for this hit on Wild forward Jason Zucker, who was carted off the ice with an upper-body injury.
Zucker had one shot on goal, playing a team-low 5:26 of ice time for the afternoon. After the game, it was announced the forward would be considered day to day.
