Marian Hossa's power-play goal less than nine minutes into the third period was the difference as Chicago downed Detroit, 4-3, in preseason action on Wednesday night at the United Center. Patrick Kane and Brent Seabrook also tallied, while Ben Smith added a goal early in the third before leaving the game after absorbing a hit to the head from Detroit's Brendan Smith.
Corey Crawford made 17 saves for the win. Chicago is back on the ice tomorrow night as they host the Pittsburgh Penguins at the United Center.
