The Chicago Blackhawks vs. the Columbus Blue Jackets battle it out on the ice at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio on Thursday, March 14 at 7:00 p.m. ET. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of the Thursday evening hockey game online and catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores. 

The Blackhawks head into Thursday night's game as the no 1 team in the NHL Western Central Conference. Chicago snags the overall no 1 spot in the division, with a 21-2-3 record. According to ESPN sports columnist Pierre LeBrun, " The Blackhawks have lost two straight after a record 24-game season-opening points streak. Playing seven games in 11 days might have something to do with it."

The Blue Jackets snag the no 5 spot in the NHL Western Central Conference, and the no 23 overall spot with a 10-12-5 record (out of 30 teams). As LeBrun points out, "Hey, why not? The Blue Jackets deserve some love after winning five straight, including a weekend sweep over Detroit."

Fans will see how the Blue Jackets hold up against the league's best team.

The game will be broadcasted live on CSN-CH, NHLN, and FS-O, but fans can also listen in on the radio at 720 WGN, ESPN 1000, 670 The Score, 97.1 The Fan, and ESPN 990.
