Petr Mrazek and Arvid Soderblom. Jaxson Stauber and Drew Commesso. The Blackhawks should be set at goaltender for the next decade, right? Wrong. Despite Chicago projecting to have their NHL and AHL duos lined up for the coming season, the Blackhawks may still be looking to add a goaltender to their...
As we count down the days to the 2023 NHL Draft in Nashville (just two weeks!), many fans’ attention has shifted to the 19th overall pick. We all know who the first overall pick should be, as the Blackhawks will be selecting the face of their franchise in Connor Bedard. However, the possibilities...
Projected top draft pick Connor Bedard, along with 105 of his fellow draft prospects, completed the week-long NHL Draft Combine Saturday, and it’s safe to say Bedard lived up to his reputation. With the Blackhawks all but guaranteed to select Bedard first overall at the end of the month, many...
As we get set for a free agency frenzy on the first of July, the most popular names for fans to pound the table for are players that have formerly skated for their team. The Blackhawks are set to have one of the most hectic free agency seasons in recent memory, with more than a third of the...
Less than a month before one of the only pending unrestricted free agents from last year’s Blackhawks squad was scheduled to hit the open market, GM Kyle Davidson and the rest of the brass in Chicago brought back forward Andreas Athanasiou Wednesday evening. The deal, which is worth a total of $8.5...
After a tumultuous season in the Blackhawks’ broadcast booth, the Blackhawks appear to be on track to hiring Darren Pang as their newest color commentator on TV. As one of the league’s most experienced and popular analysts, Pang is enthusiastic and his personality is infectious. He’s extremely...
A memorable season for a few Blackhawks just came to an abrupt end. On Sunday, Blackhawks prospects Kevin Korchinski, Nolan Allan, and Colton Dach competed in the Memorial Cup for a CHL championship, but fell short, as they suffered a 5-0 defeat. The trio had a marathon of a season, as the road to...
17-year-old Connor Bedard had to make history one last time before leaving the CHL for good this summer. On Saturday, the CHL awards were announced in Kamloops, B.C. The presumptive number one draft pick won not one, not two, but all three major awards. Bedard was presented Satuday night with the...
After a pair of exceptional seasons in the WHL, a pair of Blackhawks have been named to CHL All-Star Teams (well, technically only one Blackhawk, but…). Connor Bedard of the Regina Pats was named to the first team and Kevin Korchinski of the Seattle Thunderbirds to the third team. Connor Bedard...
The first of June marks one of the most important days of a GM’s year: prospects drafted in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft must be signed by 5:00 p.m. EDT today. Most of the notable names from the Blackhawks’ class have already been signed, so they don’t make it on the following list released by...
When looking at a list of Blackhawks contracts headed into the 2023-24 season, one deal stands out. Defenseman Connor Murphy, who’s the longest-tenured Blackhawk after the departure of Jonathan Toews at the end of the season, is the only player under contract past 2025, and his deal expires only a...
The Blackhawks haven’t played a game in over a month. The NHL Draft Lottery, which saw Chicago sports fans more excited than they had been in years, was over three weeks ago. The draft is a month away, and free agency is even further down the road. And yet, Blackhawks fans still have a reason to...
