Tim Stützle had a goal and an assist for the Senators (22-27-2), who have lost two in a row. Joonas Korpisalo made 19 saves.
“I think we did a pretty solid job tonight,” Stutzle said. “I wouldn’t say we outworked them, but they were playing really physical and we held against it. I think we played a good game tonight, a good 200-foot game. Anytime you have [42] shots and your opponent has 22, you probably deserve to win. That’s how it is sometimes.”
Nick Foligno gave Chicago a 1-0 lead at 13:29 of the first period. Bedard took a drop pass from Kurashev in the offensive zone and passed the puck back to him at the goal line. Kurashev put it in front for Foligno, who tapped it in.
Stutzle tied it 1-1 at 15:57, finishing a give-and-go with Claude Giroux on a 2-on-1.
“Great play,” Stutzle said. “I just tried to give him the puck and make the play. I’ve said it before, he’s one of the best playmakers in the League. I have an opportunity to play with him and just try to get open.”
The Senators took a 2-1 lead on a power-play goal by Jakob Chychrun at 8:13 of the second period. He scored with a one-timer from the right face-off circle off a pass by Vladimir Tarasenko.
“We haven’t been cooking as well as we’d like on the power [play], but it’s always nice to get one,” Chychrun said. “Sometimes it just takes one to open the floodgates again.”
Bedard tied it 2-2 at 10:54, putting a wrist shot through Korpisalo’s pads after taking a pass from Kurashev in the left circle.
“He's fun to play with,” Bedard said of Kurashev. “I mean, he's super smart, fast, skilled. I think as you play with a guy more, you're kind of able to read off him, and same with [Foligno]. But yeah ‘Kurshy’ is a stud. I've had a lot of fun growing that chemistry and getting to play with him.”
Bedard appeared to give the Blackhawks the lead at 12:24 of the third, but the Senators successfully challenged for offside and the goal was overturned.
Dickinson’s game-winner came after a shot by Tyler Johnson was blocked in front.
“I’m honestly not thinking about the net, really, much at that point,” Dickinson said. “I’m just thinking, ‘How can I contort my stick to get it at a good angle to get it anywhere on the net?’ I’m not thinking, ‘OK the goalie’s over here, the goalie’s there.’ It’s literally just puck here, I’ve got to get my body around it or my arms around it so I can get a decent angle on the puck.”
NOTES: It was Bedard’s seventh multipoint game of the season, tied with Minnesota Wild defenseman Brock Faber for the most among NHL rookies. … Kurashev has seven points (one goal, six assists) during a five-game point streak. … Foligno has five points (three goals, two assists) during a five-game point streak. … Chicago got its first win since Jan. 19. … Giroux had a three-game goal streak end.
