The Chicago Blackhawks have assigned forward Frank Nazar and defenseman Kevin Korchinski to their AHL affiliate, the Rockford IceHogs, along with defenseman Louis Crevier. Eighteen-year-old forward AJ Spellacy, who had a strong training camp, will play for the Windsor Spitfires in the OHL. Nazar, a first-round pick in 2022, scored in his NHL debut but faces limited playing time due to the team's active offseason. Coach Luke Richardson highlighted the importance of these assignments for player development, allowing Nazar and Korchinski to gain significant ice time and experience rather than risk struggling at the NHL level. The roster cuts have reduced the camp roster to 28 players as the Blackhawks prepare for their season opener against Utah.

Frank Nazar, a first-round pick in the 2022 draft, has been assigned to Rockford to gain more playing time and experience. After scoring in his NHL debut last season, the Blackhawks' active offseason left little opportunity for him on the main roster. Coach Luke Richardson believes that playing as a No. 1 center and participating in special teams will benefit Nazar's development more than limited ice time in the NHL.

The Chicago Blackhawks were the opponents in the preseason game where the Wild faced an early 1-0 deficit. Their presence on the ice set the stage for Fleury's playful ice crew stunt, which ultimately sparked the Wild's turnaround in the game, leading to a decisive 7-2 victory.
