CHICAGO — Kirby Dach’s homecoming was quiet for most of the afternoon Friday at the United Center.
But the former Chicago Blackhawks center awoke when it mattered, flipping a wrist shot past goaltender Arvid Söderblom to give the Montreal Canadiens a 3-2 shootout win in a matchup between two Original Six teams.
Dach, 21, cupped his hand to his ear to mock Hawks’ fans, who had greeted him with jeers upon his return.
