Slavin was drafted by the Blackhawks in 2018 and was with the team until 2023 before getting traded to Anaheim. Most recently, he appeared in 70 games with the Toronto Marlies (AHL), picking up 10 goals and 14 assists (24 points). Now he joins his brother (Jaccob) in the Hurricanes organization, where he'll likely start the 2024-25 season in the AHL.

Slavin had three goals, eight assists, 16 PIMs and a -13 plus/minus through 51 games with the Rockford IceHogs (AHL) but has been dealt to Anaheim for Hunter Drew on Thursday.

Slavin has played in four straight games, failing to register a point in 13:46 ATOI. Henrik Borgstrom will draw back into the lineup to replace him vs. the Stars.

Slavin was called up from Rockford (AHL) after the All-Star break and will play in his 11th career NHL game on Wednesday. The 23-year-old forward will replace Brett Connolly in the lineup and has one assist in his first 10 games.

Slavin, who has one assist in 10 games with the Blackhawks this season, will be replaced by Mackenzie Entwistle on the active roster.
