Newcomers made an impact for the Chicago Blackhawks, who got goals from Craig Smith and Teuvo Teräväinen, but they couldn’t prevent a 4-2 loss to the Detroit Red Wings in the preseason opener Wednesday at the United Center.

The Blackhawks took the United Center ice Wednesday night in game action for the first time this season, and a couple veteran additions to the roster — including a former first-round draft pick back with the team again — found the back of the net right away.
