Toews' goal and three assists, along tallies from Patrick Kane, Brandon Saad, Marian Hossa, Ben Smith and Patrick Sharp helped the Hawks improve to 15-4-4 this season. 

Jets captain Andrew Ladd, Keaton Ellerby and Dustin Byfuglien scored for the Jets, who dropped to 10-11-3 on the year. 

Corey Crawford stopped 22 Winnipeg shots to pick up the win in net for Chicago, while Jets netminder Ondrej Pavelec finished with 27 saves.
