WGN Radio’s Jack Heinrich breaks down the Blackhawks’ 4-2 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets at the United Center. Charlie Roumeliotis joins the show to discuss the team’s five-game winless skid, whether the Blackhawks may be hitting a wall as the compressed schedule wears on, and Artyom Levshunov’s healthy scratch and overall development plan.

Later, we hear from Connor Bedard, Sam Rinzel and head coach Jeff Blashill. Jack and Charlie also share their thoughts on Bedard’s performance and the line combination featuring Frank Nazar and Tyler Bertuzzi.

Jack wraps up the show by providing a Blackhawks prospect update on Marek Vanacker and previewing Chicago’s next matchup against Macklin Celebrini and the San Jose Sharks on Monday at the United Center.
