<p>The Canes lost to the Chicago Blackhawks, 4-3, in a shootout on a night when the power play -- which had been excellent of late -- went 0 for 5 and conceded a shorthanded goal.&nbsp; Joel Nystrom scored his first NHL goal and was joined on the scoresheet by Jordan Staal and Jackson Blake in the loss.&nbsp; One thing Carolina did well on Thursday was bounce back.&nbsp; They never led in the game, but each time Chicago scored the Canes seemed to get the game back even quickly.&nbsp; Alexander Nikishin took part in his first NHL fight as Chicago's Oliver Moore challenged him after a clean hit on Rick Lardis in the second period.&nbsp; Nikishin didn't appear interested in fighting, but ended the bout quickly as Moore was knocked to the ice in 3 punches.&nbsp; Moore would have the last say, however, as it was his shootout conversion ended the game in the 6th round and gave Chicago the bonus point.</p>
