Predators vs. Blackhawks Watch and Listen Online LIVE STREAM: NHL Live Feed and Coverage from Chicago

The Nashville Predators vs. the Chicago Blackhawks battle it out on the ice at the Xcel Energy Center in Chicago on Monday, April 1 at 8:30 p.m. ET. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of the Monday evening hockey game online and catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores. 

The Predators head into Monday night's game as the no 4 team in the NHL Western Central Conference. Nashville snags the overall no 21 spot in the division, with a 14-14-7 record. According to CBS sports columnist Mark Stubits, "Where has this offense been all season? Over the last seven games they're averaging 3.7 goals per. Yet they've lost five of seven (though won the last two) because they've given up 3.6 per. Weird."

The Blackhawks snag the no 1 spot in the NHL Western Central Conference, and the no 1 overall spot with a 26-5-3 record (out of 30 teams). As Stubits points out, "Crazy that in this short season the Blackhawks had one game in seven days. They lost to Anaheim. Still, they hold the top spot and maybe the rest will do them good. That's a scary thought."

The game will be broadcasted live on NHLN-US, FS-W, and CSN-CH, but fans can also listen in on the radio at WNSR, 1370 AM, 1340 WBGN, 720 WGN, ESPN 1000, and 670 The Score.
