CHICAGO, March 5 (UPI) -- Two goals by Bryan Bickell got the Chicago Blackhawks on the road to a 5-3 win over the Minnesota Wild and their 20th victory of the season Tuesday.

Marian Hossa and Patrick Kane also scored and Brandon Saad notched a goal and two assists in the win. Corey Crawford turned in another solid performance in goal, making 20 saves and improving to 11-0-3.

Devin Setoguchi, Ryan Suter and Kyle Brodziak scored for the Wild, who have lost three of their last six starts.
