2013 Chicago Blackhawks
Points streak to start season: 16 games
Earning a point in their game against San Jose on Feb. 22 would give the Blackhawks a new NHL record for best start, breaking the one set by the Anaheim Ducks during their 2006-07 Stanley Cup-winning campaign. The Hawks opened the lockout-shortened 48-game 2013 season 13-0-3 (29 points) with only shootout losses to Minnesota (Jan. 30), Vancouver (Feb. 1) and the Ducks (Feb. 12) before going for the mark against the Sharks.
