In a closely contested matchup on February 25, 2025, the Chicago Blackhawks fell 2-1 to the Utah Hockey Club at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City. The game was marked by a series of penalties that disrupted the Blackhawks’ rhythm and offensive flow.
Head coach Anders Sörensen expressed his frustration post-game, stating, “It’s hard to judge after a game like that because we didn’t create much. There were a lot of penalties, and they never got into a rhythm.”
The Blackhawks started strong, with defenseman Seth Jones scoring a power-play goal early in the first period. However, Utah responded with a goal from Clayton Keller late in the second period, and Lawson Crouse secured the game winner in the third. Despite a commendable 34-save performance by Chicago’s goalie Arvid Söderblom, the team couldn’t regain the lead.
This loss marks the Blackhawks’ fourth consecutive defeat, intensifying concerns about the team’s current form and the impact of frequent penalties on their gameplay.
