    The Chicago Blackhawks are starting to get miffed about missed opportunities.

    Yes, the Nashville Predators were a physical mismatch Saturday in the Hawks’ 4-2 loss at Bridgestone Arena, but nothing from the game showed they overwhelmed the visitors.

    The Preds barely outshot them 32-31. While they had a slight edge in scoring chances, 22-18 according to NaturalStatTrick.com, the Hawks edged them 10-9 in high-danger opportunities.

    Bottom line: Opportunities were there for the Hawks, who suffered their third straight loss and fell to 5-10.

    “It’s just another frustrating (game),” coach Luke Richardson said. “You’re in the game at the end and we pushed hard to climb back in.

    “We had a really good start again. I don’t think they got their first (real) chance till the (12-minute) mark. Unfortunately we had one kind of a miscue on a faceoff won in the D-zone that was in our net.”
