NBCSN will continue its coverage of the 2015-16 campaign tonight with a pair of interesting games. It all gets underway when the Chicago Blackhawks host the Minnesota Wild at 8:00 p.m. ET. If you want to watch the game online, you can do so here.

The Wild come into this game having lost three in a row and six of their last seven games to close out the month of November.

The good news for Minnesota is that Zach Parise returned to their lineup last Friday after missing eight games because of a knee injury.

He has no points and minus-2 rating since coming back.

Besides the two teams Parise’s played for (New Jersey and Minnesota), there isn’t a team in the league he’s produced less against than the ‘Hawks.

The 31-year-old has three goals and seven points in 20 games against Chicago.

The Blackhawks are off to an average start, but they’ve proven that they’re still tough to beat at home.

Chicago is 8-2-1 at the United Center this season.

This will be the Hawks’ first home game since Nov. 15. They closed out their six-game road trip with a 3-2 OT loss to the Kings on Saturday.

Following that tilt, NBCSN will broadcast the late game between the Pittsburgh Penguins and San Jose Sharks at 10:30 p.m. ET. You can watch the game online by clicking here.

The Penguins closed out the month of November with a pair of disappointing losses to the Blue Jackets (OT) and Oilers (SO).

Pittsburgh hasn’t won a game in regulation since Nov. 19 when they defeated Colorado 4-3.

You can’t blame Evgeni Malkin for the Penguins’ recent struggles.

The 29-year-old has scored each of Pittsburgh’s last four goals and he has 10 points in his last three contests.

November was very kind to the Sharks.

The team set a new franchise record by sweeping a six-game road trip that saw them win in Detroit, Buffalo, Boston, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Columbus.

They lost their first game back home to Chicago, but they closed out the month with a 5-2 win over the Flames on Saturday.

Sharks defenseman Brent Burns scored a pair of goals when these two teams met on Nov. 21. San Jose won that game by a score of 3-1.
