Blackhawks lineup tonight: Chicago's projected lineup for game against Carolina Hurricanes | Jan. 30 2025

Tonight, the Chicago Blackhawks will look to make it two in a row after a 4-1 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday. With a win tonight, Chicago could embark on just their third win streak of the season following back-to-back wins against the Kings and the Ducks in early November and a three-game win streak in mid-December.

Across from them on the ice will be a Carolina Hurricanes team that's 4-1 over their last five and fresh off a 4-0 shutout win over the New York Rangers. Chicago is sitting at the bottom of the Central Division's standings, outside of both playoff contention and the wild-card race.

On the flip side, the Hurricanes are sitting in second place in the Metropolitan Division with a record of 31-16-4, two points ahead of the third-place Devils and seven points behind the first-place Capitals.
