Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Alec Martinez (undisclosed) sustained an injury during Monday's loss to the Colorado Avalanche. Martinez logged just over three minutes of ice time before exiting the contest.

Martinez is being evaluated for an undisclosed injury and is questionable to return to Monday's game in Colorado, per Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.

The Blackhawks lost 3-0 in Colorado on Monday night, but came away encouraged by the NHL debut of defenseman Artyom Levshunov. The No. 2 overall pick in last year's draft got off 7 shots, 3 on goal,

Levshunov makes his NHL debut tonight against Colorado and Dickinson also returns. Blackhawks lines: Dach-Bedard-Dickinson Teravainen-Donato-Mikheyev Slaggert-Nazar-Foligno Bertuzzi-Veleno-Reichel Vlasic-Kaiser Del Mastro-Murphy Martinez-Levshunov Knight

The nerves, Chicago defenseman Artyom Levshunov insisted, were nonexistent ahead of his NHL debut Monday night against Colorado. Excitement sure, but no pregame jitters hours before the opening face-off.

Steven Stamkos scored at 2:39 of overtime to complete his 14th career hat trick and the Nashville Predators beat the Chicago Blackhawks 3-2

The Chicago Blackhawks will take on the Colorado Avalanche on Monday night in Denver. The Hawks, who have been playing well lately, are taking on this Avalanche team, which has everything they need to win the Stanley Cup.
