CHICAGO — If the Montreal Canadiens are to remain in contention for a postseason berth Drew Doughty Jersey , they will have to rely on contributions throughout their lineup.Montreal will take a two-game winning streak into its game Sunday against the Chicago Blackhawks. The Canadiens have discovered a measure of success of late after they stumbled through a five-game skid and hope to continue on the right path as they continue a three-game road trip.The Canadiens are coming off a 5-2 victory over the Ottawa Senators in which they got a goal from each of their four lines and used two goals from Paul Byron to capture both ends of the home-and-home series against Ottawa.Article continues below ...Montreal coach Claude Julien hopes that his team’s style of play along with the balanced scoring attack that has sparked the Canadiens during a four-game stretch in which Montreal is 3-0-1 continues Sunday at the United Center.But now Julien is looking for his team to take another step forward and find a way to play with more of a killer instinct.“We’ve talked about how we want to finish,” Julien told reporters after Thursday’s victory, according to the team’s official website. “Especially when you have the lead, it’s easy to kind of sit back and get comfortable and weve done that at times this season.“That’s an area we’re trying to improve on. I think in the last little while we’ve been better in the third (period) and we’ve kind of controlled the period — even though we’ve had the lead.”Keeping the scoring coming from all four lines will certainly help Montreal’s case for extended success.“When you’ve got four lines that can play the way we’ve been lately, that can play and push the pace and play in their end, forecheck, it certainly makes it hard for the other team,” Byron told reporters after Thursday’s victory.Chicago enters Sunday’s game on a six-game losing streak http://www.officialkings.com/authentic-adidas-dustin-brown-jersey , the most recent of which came in a 4-3 setback on the road against the Vegas Golden Knights. While the Blackhawks’ front office hoped that the firing of coach Joel Quenneville might spark change, Jeremy Colliton has failed to change Chicago’s fortunes.Chicago will take an NHL-worst minus-30 goal differential into Sunday’s game and has struggled throughout the season to score, which — coupled with the Blackhawks’ inability to contain opposing teams — has led to predictable results.Frustration has set in on a team that, until recently, had not been accustomed to losing and that is now finding difficulty finding ways to win.Of those fighting the frustration the hardest is goalie Corey Crawford, whose return from missing much of the season last year with a concussion was expected to make a difference, only to see the Blackhawks’ competitive issues continue.Chicago has lost its past three games by a total of four goals.“I don’t know how to deal with (losing),” Crawford told reporters Saturday Jake Muzzin Jersey , according to the Chicago Tribune. “Be pissed off? Let it go and keep playing? I really don’t know. It’s not a good position to be in. It’s definitely frustrating.“I don’t know. Maybe our older guys, our core group, maybe we all need to play better to get us out of this. Maybe that’s the answer.”Colliton has told his players to keep pushing for change.“No one’s happy,” Colliton told reporters Saturday. “So you can’t expect guys not to show some frustration at times. What we need to do as a team is get right back at it.” The Anaheim Ducks will try to avoid their longest losing streak in three years when they begin a four-game homestand against the San Jose Sharks on Sunday evening at Honda Center.The Ducks (5-5-1) have lost four straight to erase a promising 5-1-1 start. They haven’t dropped five in a row since a 0-4-1 stretch on Oct. 22-29, 2015.Anaheim beat San Jose 5-2 in the season opener for both teams on Oct. 3. That served as a springboard for early success, but the Ducks have hit a wall in the past week, getting outscored 15-6 in the current losing streak.Article continues below ...“We have to figure it out in our room,” Anaheim defenseman Josh Manson told reporters after a 5-2 loss at the Dallas Stars on Thursday night. “Look in the mirror and pull ourselves out of it.”The Sharks Jeff Carter Jersey , meanwhile, have gone 3-0-1 after a 2-3-1 start. They nearly ran their winning streak to four games on Friday night but couldn’t hold leads of 2-0 and 3-1 before losing in a shootout at the Carolina Hurricanes.“What a tale of two games,” Sharks coach Peter DeBoer told reporters afterward. “I walked out at the end of the first period. I thought we could have been up 4-0, and then we never won another race or battle or shift the rest of the night.”San Jose’s three-game road trip concludes in Anaheim.Even during the Ducks’ hot start, they had a major disparity between the amount of shots on goal they were taking and the number they were giving up. That gap has grown even wider as Anaheim currently allows the most shots on goal per game in the NHL at 38.2 while taking the fewest (24).“All of us, collectively, can play better,” Manson said. “We really have to take a hard look at ourselves here.”A good sign from the loss to the Stars on Thursday night were the two goals scored by center Ryan Getzlaf http://www.officialkings.com/authentic-adidas-jonathan-quick-jersey , his first of the season.Getzlaf had two assists in the season-opening win over the Sharks but sustained a groin injury three nights later at the Arizona Coyotes and missed the next five games.Anaheim hasn’t won since Getzlaf rejoined the lineup on Oct. 20 at the Vegas Golden Knights.Anaheim also recently added left winger Nick Ritchie, who ended a holdout by signing a three-year contract on Oct. 18. He made his debut on Tuesday in a 3-1 loss at the Chicago Blackhawks but sustained an upper-body injury against Dallas and could be out of action against the Sharks.San Jose could be without center Tomas Hertl, who didn’t come out for the third period against the Hurricanes because of an undisclosed injury. Hertl has nine points in nine games.DeBoer told reporters after Friday’s loss that Hertl is day to day.“He’s been dealing with something here most of the year,” DeBoer said. “He’s been playing through it and he just reaggravated it.”
