Status report
Foligno, a forward, is taking a leave of absence from the Blackhawks because of his daughter’s upcoming heart surgery. … Reichel will replace Foligno in the lineup. … Slaggert has resumed skating but will miss his fifth straight game; the forward could return against the Vancouver Canucks on Friday, Chicago coach Jeff Blashill said. … The Blackhawks are expected to dress 11 forwards and seven defensemen. … Sundqvist, a forward, has not played this season and will miss his fourth consecutive game, and Toropchenko, a forward, will miss his third straight; each is day to day.
