Antti Niemi, the rookie who is 3-0-0 this season, will get the call in goal over struggling Cristobal Huet when the Blackhawks host Vancouver on Wednesday. It'll be Niemi's third start. Huet made the other six starts. His 2-2-1 record includes a dismal .844 save percentage and his last two starts on home ice have been shaky at best. Still, coach Joel Quenneville still considers Huet his No. 1 goaltender.
