But it was hard inside when the match ball was finally hit. Chicago went up in an early 2-0 lead after both Jonathan Toews and Alex DeBrincat outwitted Robin Lehner in the first period.

But Vegas came back via two goal-scoring passes from William Karlsson and before the last period it was equal to three.

Then Alex Tuch made sure to decide and send Chicago out of the bubble in Edmonton and advance to the quarterfinals.

Lehner, who was shot from Chicago last winter, saved 23 of 26 shots.
