CHICAGO (AP) -- Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville took a long look at his power play, then moved one goal to the corner of the ice and put his players through battle drills for a loose puck along the boards.No one is pressing the panic button in Chicago, which won the Stanley Cup in 2013 and made it all the way to the conference finals a year ago. But the Blackhawks know they have to step up their play right now.
''The 'get attention' button is where I'm at. ... I got it pushed,'' Quenneville said after Monday's practice.Chicago is just 10-10-3 in 2015 after losing three in a row for the first time since last March. It looked ready to pick up some momentum when it posted a couple of impressive wins at Winnipeg and St. Louis heading into an eight-game homestand, but it has been a rough couple of weeks for Quenneville's team.
