You can get Center Ice on the net. $150 or so.

If you are in the Chicago area then you likely have no choice at this point outside of illegal streams. Blackout rules still apply to local games.

Just tell your mom it's 2006 instead of 2016 and she, like the rest of Chicago at the time, won't give two shits about the Blackhawks.

Best way to go is to suck it up and pay for the NHL Center Ice package. Get the whole deal, not the lame 1 team thing they came up with
out of the anti-trust settlement. There is hockey other than the Blackhawks.

Then either

(i) Move out of the Blackhawks blackout restriction area.

or

(ii) Just sign up for a decent VPN ( https://www.surfeasy.com/en/ works well on all devices ) , connect to the VPN out of market when you wanna watch a game and you're in.

you could also find a blackhawks fan with cable and a sling box, or ask around one of the slingbox sharing sites.

if you wanna try a pirate stream, hang around the gameday threads of chicitysports blackhawks forum or sb nation thing, 2nd city hockey, hfboards etc and people will post working streams if you ask.

Most pirate streams suck more donkey dick than an atheist redditor Trump supporter who thinks Steven Avery's innocent of butchering Theresa Halbach and Adnan Syed had nothing to do with Hae Min Lee's murder. Go Pats.

What does this matter? Away games are still subject to local blackout rules.

Reddit (either in the general NHL section or the Blackhawks one (which they just call Hawks) gameday threads sometimes will indicate a live stream link often of pretty good quality.

If you want to troll around the depths of 4chan on the sports board, one might also find a stream as well.

If that fails, sites like http://www.batmanstream.com/free-live-streaming-videos.html (used to be called realstreamunited or something like that) can often get you what you need, but you take your computer's life in your hands on sites like those. That said, corporate hasn't blocked it (inexplicably) and I often used it last year to stream Cubs games at work so it would seem to not be as bad as most others can be.
