Kartye's goal in the third period narrowed the gap, but Chicago held on for the win.

In addition to the game, Chicago announced the acquisition of forward Anthony Beauvillier from Vancouver, adding depth to their roster. The Kraken will look to bounce back when they face Toronto in their next game, while the Blackhawks will aim to build on their victory in their upcoming matchups.
