Patrick Sharp snapped a five-game goalless drought with his second goal of the season on Monday.
"I wasn't too panicked," Sharp said of his slump. "I've been down that road before a few times. I felt like I was generating chances, my linemates were playing well, and it was just a matter of time before one went in. Nice to put one in; hopefully that starts something." Sharp played with Jonathan Toews and Marian Hossa in the contest. He has two goals, six points and 49 shots in 12 games this year.

Patrick Sharp hasn't been finding the back of the net despite numerous shots in the early going of the 2013-14 season.
He has fired 45 shots in 11 games, but he's only scored one goal. Sharp amassed seven shots in Chicago's 5-3 loss to Minnesota on Saturday, but he couldn't beat Wild goalie Niklas Backstrom. The puck is bound to start bouncing his way soon, especially if his shot volume remains so high.

Patrick Sharp recorded his first goal of the season, in addition to providing the game winner in the shootout, to lead Chicago over Carolina on Tuesday night.
The goals came after his new daughter, Sadie Ellen Sharp, was born Sunday. Sharp registered the game-winning goal in overtime against the Sharks two days after the birth of his first daughter, Madelyn Grace, back on Dec. 9, 2011. "It looks like we have to have some more kids," Sharp joked after the game. "It was a pretty special goal, especially with what the family went through the last couple of days. It's a pretty cool time for my wife (Abby) and our family." His regulation marker was the 200th of his career.

Blackhawks forward Patrick Sharp may miss a game over the coming weeks to attend the birth of his second child.
Sharp's wife is due to give birth next week and the winger has made clear that he intends to be present for the event. "I plan on being there for my wife and family," Sharp said. "Sometimes you get messed up with flights and that stuff, but I plan on missing a game if I have to." If nothing else, it's something to make note of for Sharp owners in leagues with daily lineup moves.

Coach Joel Quenneville is pleased with the play of Patrick Sharp in the early going.
"He had a great camp," Quenneville said. "He's skating as good as I've ever seen him skate. Every single time he's hit the ice, it seems he's at a different pace this year. He?Ts approached the season in a real positive way. It's good. We expect him to be producing at a real nice rate here." Sharp is on the second line with Marian Hossa and Michal Handzus and sees plenty of time on the first power play as he led the Blackhawks in power play time on ice in the first game at 3:43 minutes. If Sharp can remain healthy, a 35 goal, 70-plus point season is easily within reach.
