Here is where you can watch the Game 7 of the NHL playoffs first round series between the St. Louis Blues and the Chicago Blackhawks.

After being down 3-1 after the first period in Game 6, the Blackhawks pulled ahead to win the game 6-3. According to the NHL, this is the second time in history the Blackhawks overcame a multi-goal deficit to win when facing elimination, the first being in 1965.

With the series tied at three in a best-of-seven series, one team will end their postseason campaign tonight while the other will move on to face the Dallas Stars in the second round of the NHL playoffs.

St. Louis has lost in the first round of the NHL playoffs in each of the last three seasons. Meanwhile, Chicago has not been sent home in the first round of the playoffs since 2012. The last time the team entered a Game 7 was in 2015, when the Blackhawks would ultimately pull through and win the Stanley Cup.

Forwards Vladimir Tarasenko, Alex Pietrangelo and Scottie Upshall scored for St. Louis in the first period after Andrew Ladd opened the scoring for Chicago. Although it seemed that the Blues had the upper hand and would clinch the win, the Blackhawks came back on the ice to execute the best period of the series.  It was a game dominated by new Hawks, namely Ladd, Richard Panik and Dale Weise scoring goals that pushed Chicago ahead of the Blues to stretch the series into Game 7.

The St. Louis Blues and the Chicago Blackhawks will duel it out one more time on the ice tonight at 8:30 PM ET on NBC Sports Network.
