Colin Blackwell News

Blackwell has spent the last two seasons in Chicago but earned himself a one-year, $775,000 contract on Tuesday with Dallas. The 31-year-old is entering his seventh NHL season and had eight goals, 12 points, 10 PIMs and a -2 plus/minus in 44 games in 2023-24.

Blackwell will get the chance to play once more this year as he draws into Chicago's lineup for their regular season finale. He enters tonight's contest with eight goals and four assists in 43 games.

Blackwell has not played since March 19th due to an upper-body injury but could return to the lineup on Tuesday. The 30-year-old center had eight goals and 12 points in 39 games before his injury.

Blackwell left Tuesday's game with an upper-body injury and will not be available on Thursday vs. Anaheim as he is being further evaluated by the team. The 30-year-old center has eight goals and 12 points in 39 games before his injury.

Blackwell left the Blackhawks' game on Tuesday in the third period after just 12:37 TOI due to an upper-body injury and was unable to participate in practice on Wednesday. The 30-year-old is having his most successful season since 2021-22 with Seattle, as he has eight goals, four assists, 83 SOG, and eight PIMs in 39 games played before the injury.

Blackwell will make his season debut after missing the first two and a half months of the season recovering from a groin injury. Blackwell scored 10 points (2G / 8A) in 53 games in his first season with the Blackhawks last year. He is expected to skate on the third line with Jason Dickinson and Nick Foligno.

Blackwell had two goals, eight assists, 53 SOG, six PIMs, and a -16 plus/minus through 53 games with Chicago in 2022-23 but will begin the 2023-24 season on the injured reserve due to a lower-body injury. The 30-year-old veteran forward is considered out indefinitely as he begins his sixth NHL season. He will be used as a key depth piece when he returns to the Blackhawks.

Blackwell will retreat to the press box for the first time this season after it was announced he will miss Tuesday's game for Chicago as a healthy scratch. In nine games with the Blackhawks, the 29-year-old has two assists and a -2 plus/minus rating while playing 12:03 TOI nightly.

Blackwell missed the first 14 games of the season with a lower-body injury but will make his Kraken debut on Saturday. Blackwell will start on the fourth line with Morgan Geekie and Brandon Tanev.

Blackwell has been out since January 30th with an undisclosed injury but will replace Artemi Panarin in the lineup vs. Boston. Blackwell has one goal and two assists in four games this season.

Blackwell played just 2:53 in the Rangers game vs. the Penguins on Saturday and will miss 7-10 days with an upper-body injury. With Blackwell coming out of the lineup on Monday, look for Julien Gauthier to draw back in.

After spending the last three seasons in the Predators' organization, Blackwell hit the open market on Friday and signed on with the Rangers. In New York he could have a tough time cracking the opening night roster but he's a hard-working winger that could serve a role in the bottom-6 if injuries pop up. He had 10 points (3G / 7A) in 27 games with the Predators in 2020.
