Congrats to Jack Skille, former Badger and current Chicago Blackhawk, who scored his [first career NHL goal](http://blackhawks.nhl.tv/team/launch.htm?hlp=8471681&event=MTL65) Tuesday in the first period of Chicago’s 5-4 overtime loss against Montreal. He also notched an assist on a later goal, giving him two points on the night in just his fifth game in the NHL.
Skille was assisted by another former Badger, Renee Borque, on the goal. Skille and Borque are two of several former Wisconsin players on the Blackhawks roster: forwards Jake Dowell and Adam Burish–members of UW’s 2006 National Championship team–have also seen significant ice time this season for Chicago. Current Badger Matthew Ford was also drafted by the Blackhawks.
