Daniel Carcillo has dealt with consistency issues since returning from a knee injury. Carcillo has two points in 19 games while averaging 8:58 minutes per contests. That's quite a reversal of fortunes for a player that started the season on Chicago's top line. "I'm just trying to gear up for the stretch run and hopefully earn a spot in the lineup for the playoffs," Carcillo said. "Every day is kind of a new challenge. I just have to play every game almost perfect to stay in this lineup." Carcillo's physical play will probably be an asset for the Blackhawks during the postseason, but we don't expect him to battle back into a top-six position in what's left of the regular season or the playoffs.
