The Chicago Blackhawks will look for their 16th consecutive game without a regulation loss, while Ben Scrivens and the Maple Leafs look to record their third straight shutout.

There are eight games on tap in the NHL on Tuesday night, which will be headlined by the Western Conference matchup between the Chicago Blackhawks and Vancouver Canucks.

Chicago has started the regular season by going 15 games without a regulation loss. If the team can either defeat Vancouver or head to overtime, the Blackhawks will tie the 2006-07 Anaheim Ducks as the only teams in NHL history to go 16 games without a regulation loss to start a season.

In addition, the Toronto Maple Leafs and Ben Scrivens will look to extend their two-game shutout streak when they challenge the Tampa Bay Lightning, and the San Jose Sharks will look to snap a seven-game winless streak against the St. Louis Blues.
