Blackhawks' Ryan Garbutt nets game-winning goal

Chicago Blackhawks forward Ryan Garbutt scored his second goal of the season Thursday night in a 2-1 win over the Montreal Canadiens.

What It Means:

A role player who doesn't do much scoring, Garbutt gave the Blackhawks the lead just before the 13-minute mark of the first period, and it held up as the game winner. Garbutt has two points in his last three outings, but he has just six points on the year.

Our models project Garbutt to put up three goals and five helpers over the final 37 games. His 51.3 Corsi For Percentage is the best clip since his 20-game rookie season, but his -2.7 Relative Corsi For Percentage at Even Strength is close to his career-worst clip (-2.9).
