Brossoit will start Saturday vs. Arizona.

Brossoit will get his first start in four games as he gives Connor Hellebuyck a night off vs. Arizona. The 30-year-old who signed in the offseason after winning a Stanley Cup, has struggled to repeat his success from last season as he is 1-1-1 with a .872 SV% and a 3.25 GAA. He takes on the Arizona Coyotes Saturday, who won their last game and are 14th in the NHL in goals per game.

Arvid Soderblom will start Saturday in Nashville.

The Blackhawks' goalie carousel will continue Saturday vs. Nashville as Arvid Soderblom takes the crease after a shaky previous performance where he stopped 27 of 31 shots (.871 SV%) in a loss. The 24-year-old has struggled mightily in 2023-24, with his 1-5-0 record, 3.99 GAA, and .881 SV%. He draws the struggling Nashville Predators on the road Saturday, who have lost four straight games and are 21st in the NHL in goals per game (2.93).

Laurent Brossoit is expected to start Saturday vs. Arizona.

Brossoit is coming off his first victory of the season, a 20-save performance (.870 SV%) in a 6-3 shellacking of the Nashville Predators on November 9th. As expected, Connor Hellebuyck has been a workhorse for the Jets this season, limiting Brossoit to only three starts thus far, a trend that should continue for the remainder of the season. The Jets, who have won four of their last five (4-1-0) heading into Friday, have a favourable matchup on Saturday against an Arizona Coyotes team that will be without top-six forward Baret Hayton for the next four to six weeks.

Soderblom will start Sunday in Florida.

Soderblom will return to Chicago's crease on Sunday after Petr Mrazek got the not against the Lightning on Thursday. Soderblom was effective his last time out, stopping 37 of the 40 shots he faced in last Sunday's 4-2 defeat to the Devils. The 24-year-old netminder owns an .883 SV% and a 3.96 GAA across five starts this season. He's little more than a desperation play today with Chicago being a +225 underdog on the road in Florida.

Laurent Brossoit will start Thursday vs. Nashville.

Brossoit will tend the twine on Thursday, marking his first action since October 28th. As expected, Connor Hellebuyck has been a workhorse between the pipes for the Jets, limiting Brossoit to only two games thus far. In those two games (0-1-1), Brossoit has a much-to-be-desired 3.38 GAA and .873 SV%. The Jets are -129 home favourites against a Nashville Predators team coming off a 4-2 loss against the Calgary Flames, in which they gave up four unanswered goals.

Soderblom will start Sunday vs. the Devils.

Soderblom was pulled after allowing seven goals on 22 shots in the Blackhawks blowout loss in Arizona on Tuesday. After a strong start to the season, where he stopped 65 of 68 shots in his first two starts, Soderblom has been torched for 12 goals on 46 shots (.739 SV%) in his last two starts. Tonight he'll face a Devils team that will be without Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier, but Soderblom and the Blackhawks are still +179 underdogs.

Arvid Soderblom will start Monday in Arizona.

Soderblom was shelled in his previous start vs Vegas after allowing five goals on 24 shots (.792 SV%) but will take the crease Monday in Arizona. The 24-year-old has been solid this season besides the last game, as he has a 1-2-0 record, .913 SV% and 2.68 GAA. He heads to Arizona to take on the Coyotes on Monday, who are coming off back-to-back losses to Los Angeles and are 23rd in the NHL in goals per game (2.71).

Vlasic is in concussion protocol and will not play in Arizona on Monday.

Vlasic left the Blackhawks' game on Friday vs. Vegas after just 11 shifts and 9:53 TOI due to a concussion and will not play Monday against Arizona as he remains in protocol. The injury comes at a terrible time as the 22-year-old towering defensemen had been enjoying an incredibly strong start to the 2023-24 season with three assists, eight SOG, and a +4 plus/minus in eight games this year.

Brossoit will start Saturday in Montreal.

Brossoit allowed four goals on 26 shots in the Jets' loss to the Golden Knights on October 19th. It was a rough season debut for Brossoit, who will give Connor Hellebuyck a night off on Saturday. Montreal is 21st in xGF/60 (3.02) and the Jets are -147 favourites, making Brossoit a decent spot-start option.

Colton Dach (ankle) has been activated from the injured non-roster and have assigned him to Rockford (AHL).

Dach was placed on the injured reserve with an ankle injury before the start of the season and has now been assigned to the Rockford IceHogs of the AHL. The 62nd overall pick in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft has yet to play a game at the professional level and is coming off a season in the WHL where he scored 27 points (12G / 15A) in 23 games.

The Kraken announced Burakovsky will be out 6-8 weeks with an upper-body injury.

Burakovsky suffered the injury after sustaining a hit from the Rangers Jacob Trouba in the second period of Saturday's game and did not return. It's another tough blow for Burakovsky who entered the campaign with a clean bill of health following a season-ending groin injury last February. Devin Shore is expected to play in place of Burakovsky for Tuesday's game in Detroit.

Andre Burakovsky
Bertuzzi is on the ice for warmups and is expected to play in Florida on Thursday.

Bertuzzi missed practice Tuesday for maintenance and was a game-time decision Thursday vs. Florida. The 28-year-old left-winger has a goal, nine SOG, 10 PIMs and a +3 plus/minus through three games this season. Bertuzzi was signed to a one-year, $5.5 million deal in the offseason and has been attached to the hip of Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner on Toronto's top line.
