Blackhawks lineup tonight: Chicago's projected lineup for game against Edmonton Oilers | Feb. 5 2025

The Chicago Blackhawks will look to snap a two-game skid when they collide with the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday. The 1-5 loss to the Florida Panthers on Saturday made it two in a row for a Blackhawks team that has continued to struggle this season.

After some significant offseason acquisitions in the form of Teuvo Teravainen and Tyler Bertuzzi, Chicago fans hoped that the added depth to the roster would give Connor Bedard some much-needed assistance. Instead, this season has played out much like Bedard's rookie year, with Chicago struggling to find their rhythm.

The team currently ranks last in the Central Division with a record of 16-31-5, six points behind the seventh-place Nashville Predators. While their hopes of making a postseason run seem to have evaporated, the team will look to finish the remainder of the season on a high note.
