Ray Ferraro can pinpoint where the Blackhawks’ recent dominance began to turn.
“It started when they got slaughtered in that series against Nashville,” said Ferraro, who was a TV analyst for Games 3 and 4 of that 2017 playoff series, which the Predators swept. “They looked slower, smaller, not as strong, they looked old, even though they might not have been. And there was a reaction that precipitated some of the player movement.”
