Light My Fire: Blackhawks at Kings Preview

A weird scheduling quirk has the Hawks playing a pair of games in a row against the Los Angeles Kings over the next three days, with the first arriving on Thursday night out in California. These two teams met in Chicago in on Oct. 26, with the Kings snuffing out most of the Hawks’ offense during a 3-1 victory for the visitors . LA’s been up and down since: they lost three of four on both sides of Halloween, then won four straight before losing five of seven, including a 3-1 loss to the Ca...

Let’s Talk About the Blackhawks Putting Frank Nazar and Oliver Moore Back Together

When the Blackhawks began their rebuild a three years ago, general manager Kyle Davidson told us he was going to build a fast team that could skate with anyone. In each of Davidson’s draft classes, the Blackhawks have targeted exceptional skaters. Frank Nazar and Oliver Moore were widely viewed as the best skaters in their respective draft classes. The Blackhawks landing them in the first rounds of their drafts felt like the stars were aligning at the time; the video clip of Davidson pump...

MUST READ: On Connor Bedard’s “Leap” to Superstardom

On a lovely, snowy, day-after-a-late-game Wednesday for Blackhawks fans, I want to share a terrific, highly recommended read from Dom Luszczyszyn and Sean Gentille at The Athletic . Especially after the absolute show he put on in Vegas last night, it’s a great perspective on Connor Bedard ‘s ascent to the elite tier of NHL superstars this season. The piece isn’t exclusively about Bedard; Macklin Celebrini and Leo Carlsson are both also on ridiculous paces to have huge, breakout seasons. B...

A Late Night Beauty, West on Ice, Brossoit Back, 2 for Pridham, Busy Blues, and Other Blackhawks Bullets

If you stayed up late enough to watch all the way to the end of an extended shootout that ended just a few minutes before midnight, you were treated to an outstanding hockey game . That was a Vegas team with Stanley Cup aspirations and the game was played at a playoff level. Spencer Knight and Carter Hart were both spectacular in net. Connor Bedard put on a show. It’s an absolute shame the Blackhawks didn’t walk away with two points, but that was a great game to watch. With two points l...

Let It Snow: Golden Knights 4, Blackhawks 3

An entertaining hockey game unfolded in Sin City on Tuesday night, although the Blackhawks could not hang on to a pair of one-goal leads, losing 4-3 in the shootout to the Vegas Golden Knights. VGK scored 27 seconds into the game when Ivan Barbashev banked one in off the skate of Wyatt Kaiser: Vegas scores first as a pass deflects off Kaiser’s skate and in pic.twitter.com/hxqitTKXkg — BHF (@BlackhawksFocus) December 3, 2025 Oliver Moore tied the game up about a minute late...

The holiday season is officially upon us as the calendar flips to December and the Hawks are taking a trip out west for the next week, kicking off a stretch of four road games in six days on Tuesday night when they face the Vegas Golden Knights. VGK enters this game sitting third in Pacific Division with 30 points (11-6-8) from 25 games, well within striking distance of Anaheim (16-9-1). The trends have been more down than up in VGK of late, with the team crashing back to Earth after goin...

Blackhawks Trade Rumors: 3 Trade Candidates Linked to Chicago

The Chicago Blackhawks have arrived, and now it's on GM Kyle Davidson to fill in the gaps. Their roster is still very young, but with this newfound success comes a need for infusing some veteran talent, preferably players with term left on their contract. The Blackhawks have loads of draft picks, high-end prospects, and young roster players to dangle on the trade market, add that to the $20.4 million in cap space, and Davidson has all the necessary tools to make a splash.

The Blackhawks Week That Was and Will Be, 12/1: Number Munchers!

We have a main course to explore in a bit, so this opening will be brief. But as of this writing on Dec. 1 and the Chicago Blackhawks currently sit in a playoff spot — kind of. They occupy the second wild card spot if you account for the fact that their 27 points have game in one fewer game (25) than it’s taken three other teams out West to amass 27 points (Utah, San Jose, Edmonton). If the figures are based on points percentage alone, then the second wild card spot actually goes to the Winnip...

Defining Moment(s) for Bedard, Lardis is Hot Again, Vegas Goalies, and Other Blackhawks Bullets

The Blackhawks desperately, desperately needed a win on Sunday . They had lost five straight games. There were two in which they were competitive against two of the best teams in the league… but those were followed by an absolute clunker against a mediocre (bad) Nashville team. They needed a strong performance. And then the game started. And, after 47 seconds, the Blackhawks were down two goals. Ten minutes later, they were chasing three. Against a good Anaheim team that was skating circl...
