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.

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.
Del Mastro recorded an assist in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks. This 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, so it's possible he'll see more time in the AHL in 2026-27, barring a strong training camp in the fall.
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.
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.
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 ahead 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.
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.
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.
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.
