The hit parade will continue.

Anaheim has thrown 220 hits in the four-game series thus far, including a 71-hit barrage in Game 2 - a strategy forward Ryan Kesler thinks will work to their advantage as the series extends.
Asked Ryan Kesler about the Ducks' attention to pounding the Blackhawks, whether they feel it'll now pay dividends with series near end.
