CALGARY, Alberta — Seth Jones didn’t remember exactly how many shots on goal the Blackhawks recorded in their 5-2 loss Tuesday against the Canucks — the correct answer was 14 — but he knew it “wasn’t pretty.”
Nothing about the Hawks’ performance was. They took too many penalties, conceded too many breakaways, made several poorly timed line changes, lost plenty of defensive-zone puck battles, looked slow on their skates and mishandled the puck almost every time they did gain possession.
