Moore (lower body) will play for the United States at the 2026 IIHF World Hockey Championship in May, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.
Moore missed the last 19 games of the regular season with the injury. He was held out late in the campaign as the Blackhawks didn't want to risk further injury, but with the World Championship beginning May 15 in Switzerland, the extra four weeks will be more than enough for Moore to be back at full health. He ended the regular season with five goals and 19 points in 51 games and should vastly increase his point total next season as a 22-year-old.

Blackhawks' Ethan Del Mastro: Snags helper in win
Rotowire
Del Mastro recorded an assist in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.
It was Del Mastro's first point in 19 games this season. The 23-year-old defenseman added 18 shots on net, 18 PIM, 19 hits and 22 blocked shots while primarily playing on the third pairing. Del Mastro isn't as far along as some of the other Blackhawks' blue-line prospects. That could lead to him seeing more time in the AHL in 2026-27, barring a strong training camp in the fall.

Blackhawks' Andre Burakovsky: Posts assist in win
Rotowire
Burakovsky notched an assist and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.
Burakovsky had a wretched end to the campaign, posting just three points over 24 outings after the Olympic break. The 31-year-old winger totaled 11 goals, 22 assists, 87 shots on net and a minus-32 rating over 75 appearances this season. He's still under contract for one more season, so he'll likely be a candidate for middle-six minutes in 2026-27 unless the Blackhawks can swing a trade.

Blackhawks' Connor Bedard: Ends campaign with two-assist game
Rotowire
Bedard notched two assists and six PIM in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.
Bedard didn't score over the last 10 games of the season, but he still racked up eight assists in that span. The 20-year-old took a step forward in his third NHL campaign, earning 30 goals, 45 assists, 226 shots on net, 50 PIM and a minus-18 rating over 69 appearances. It's the first time Bedard has finished above a point-per-game pace, but it's safe to assume it won't be the last time.

Blackhawks' Sam Rinzel: Buries goal in comeback win
Rotowire
Rinzel scored a goal and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.
Rinzel tallied at 19:30 of the second period to get the Blackhawks on the board. They carried the momentum into the final frame and rallied for the win. The goal ended a 12-game point drought for Rinzel, who didn't have the breakout season many expected heading into the year. He concludes 2025-26 with four goals, 14 points, 83 shots on net, 49 hits, 63 blocked shots, 44 PIM and a minus-7 rating over 54 appearances. He did see top-four minutes down the stretch even amid his slump, so Rinzel should have the edge over some of the Blackhawks' other young defense prospects for a roster spot to begin 2026-27.

Blackhawks' Nick Lardis: Nets goal in win
Rotowire
Lardis scored a goal in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.
Lardis ended a five-game point drought with an insurance tally in the third period. The 20-year-old forward ended the season at 10 goals, 15 points, 57 shots on net, 57 hits and a minus-18 rating over 41 appearances. Lardis will need to have a good training camp in the fall, but he should see some NHL action in 2026-27.

Blackhawks' Ryan Greene: Pots goal Wednesday
Rotowire
Greene scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.
Greene had the Blackhawks' go-ahead tally at 8:35 of the third period. The 22-year-old forward scored in each of the last three games of the season, though he was limited to five points over the 20 contests before that. He had 12 goals, 29 points, 109 shots on net, 50 hits and a minus-14 rating over 81 appearances in his first full NHL campaign. Greene should find himself in a strong position to make the roster out of training camp again in 2026-27.

Blackhawks' Louis Crevier: Scores twice in Wednesday's win
Rotowire
Crevier scored two goals, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.
Crevier had three multi-point efforts over his last eight games of the season. The 24-year-old took strides toward becoming a regular top-four defender for the Blackhawks this season, though his usage remained primarily defensive. He wrapped up the campaign with seven goals, 25 points, 114 shots on net, 124 hits, 95 blocked shots, 63 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 78 appearances. A little more offense and extra blocks could make him a deep-league fantasy option in 2026-27.

Blackhawks' Spencer Knight: Ends season with win
Rotowire
Knight stopped 15 of 17 shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.
Knight was able to put an end to an eight-game losing streak in the Blackhawks' season finale. He didn't have a great performance, but his teammates picked him up with a strong third period. Knight ends the campaign at 19-25-11 with a 2.82 GAA and a .902 save percentage over 55 starts. That kind of workload will make him a viable fantasy option in 2026-27, though the Blackhawks will need to make some progress, particularly in their defensive zone, to flip his record around.
Blackhawks' Andrew Mangiapane: Ends season on shelf
Rotowire
Mangiapane (lower body) won't play Wednesday versus the Sharks, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Mangiapane will miss a second straight game to close out the campaign. The 30-year-old ends the year with 16 points, 58 shots on net, 65 hits and a minus-21 rating over 62 appearances between Chicago and Edmonton. He is under contract for 2026-27, but he is at risk of getting passed over by the Blackhawks' prospects.

Blackhawks' Spencer Knight: Set to start season finale
Rotowire
Knight is expected to patrol the crease at home versus San Jose on Wednesday, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Knight will be making his 55th appearance of the season, having gone 18-25-11 with a 2.84 GAA, .902 save percentage and three shutouts. If the 24-year-old netminder can get some additional support next year, he should be capable of reaching the 20-win threshold for the first time in his career, especially if he can maintain those decent ratios.
Blackhawks' Oliver Moore: Looking ahead to next season
Rotowire
Moore (lower body) will not be an option for the team's regular-season finale Wednesday versus San Jose, according to Scott Powers of The Athletic.
Head coach Jeff Blashill said Tuesday that it's not worth the risk of putting Moore into the lineup Wednesday. The 21-year-old forward is seemingly close to full strength, so there should be absolutely no concern about him being ready for the start of the 2026-27 campaign, barring any setbacks in the offseason.

Blackhawks' Ryan Greene: Tallies shortie in loss
Rotowire
Greene scored a shorthanded goal and dished out two hits in Monday's 5-1 loss to Buffalo.
Greene put the Blackhawks in the lead early in Monday's contest with his shorthanded twine finder less than four minutes after the opening puck drop. Greene has been heating up as of late and has a goal in each of his last two games. Overall, he is up to 11 goals, 28 points, 107 shots on net, 48 hits and 37 blocked shots through 80 games this season. His rookie campaign has had some highs to take into next season, and he'll look to finish the campaign on a point streak during Chicago's season finale against the Sharks on Wednesday.

Blackhawks' Spencer Knight: Allows five goals in loss
Rotowire
Knight turned aside 21 of 26 shots on goal in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Sabres.
Knight's struggles continued Monday, as he was handed his eighth consecutive loss. He's received minimal help from his offense during that span, but he has just an .868 save percentage and a 4.07 GAA during his recent 0-6-2 stretch of play. Overall, the 24-year-old netminder has an 18-25-11 record, a 2.84 GAA and a .902 save percentage across 54 games this season. His first full season in Chicago has many highs he can take into next season, including leading the Blackhawks to more combined wins and overtime losses than regulation losses. He still holds high upside in dynasty-based fantasy formats ahead of the 2026-27 campaign.
Blackhawks' Andrew Mangiapane: Unlikely to play Monday
Rotowire
Mangiapane (lower body) isn't expected to play against Buffalo on Monday, according to Vinnie Parise of The Hockey News.
Mangiapane didn't participate in Monday's morning skate after being injured in Saturday's 5-3 loss to St. Louis. Based on Chicago's morning session, Landon Slaggert is in line to replace Mangiapane in the lineup.

Blackhawks' Spencer Knight: In goal Monday
Rotowire
Knight will patrol the home crease against Buffalo on Monday, Vinnie Parise of The Hockey News reports.
Knight has gone 0-5-2 in his last seven outings while permitting 27 goals on 216 shots. He has posted a record of 18-24-11 this campaign with three shutouts, a 2.80 GAA and a .904 save percentage across 53 appearances. Buffalo is tied for fifth in the league with 3.44 goals per game this season.

Blackhawks' Ethan Del Mastro: Suiting up versus Sabres
Rotowire
Del Mastro (undisclosed) will play Monday versus Buffalo, Mark Lazerus of The Athletic reports.
Del Mastro has failed to generate a point in 17 games for the Blackhawks this year, so few fantasy managers figure to be impacted by his return to the lineup. Given his offensive limitations, the 23-year-old defenseman doesn't offer enough category coverage to make him more than a low-end depth option heading into 2026-27.
