Dickinson Day-To-Day With Upper-Body Injury

Blackhawks center Jason Dickinson will miss tonight’s game against Montreal due to an upper-body injury, relays WGN’s Charlie Roumeliotis (Twitter link). Head coach Jeff Blashill noted that the veteran is listed as day-to-day but could miss a week. The injury occurred partway through Thursday’s loss to Boston. Dickinson had a tough year last season, notching just seven goals and nine assists in 59 games after setting new career highs in goals (22) and points (35) the year before. Now in a contract year, this minor setback isn’t a great way to start it.
