Petr Mrazek News

Mrazek will start for the fourth straight on Friday night when the Blackhawks host the New York Rangers. Despite losing his last four games, the 31-year-old Mrazek has been excellent lately, allowing two or fewer goals in each contest, and boasting a dazzling .941 SV%. That said, the Blackhawks rank worst in the league offensively (2.06 GF / GP) and will be hard-pressed for a victory as +257 home underdogs against the Rangers.

Mrazek will continue his reign over the Blackhawks crease on Wednesday, starting for the third straight game. The Czech netminder has played exceptionally lately but has failed to receive any goal support from his teammates. In Mrazek's last three starts (0-3-0), he has allowed two goals or fewer in each game, posting an excellent .946 SV%, but the Blackhawks have been outscored 6-0 in that time. The Blackhawks enter Wednesday's matchup against the Minnesota Wild as +180 home underdogs.

With the Blackhawks on the back end of their road back-to-back games, Petr Mrazek will take the net Thursday in Edmonton. The 31-year-old is fresh off of signing a two-year, $8.5 million contract on Wednesday and has a 12-17-1 record, 3.01 GAA and .907 SV%. He takes on the red-hot Edmonton Oilers, who are on a historic 14 game winning streak and rank fourth in the NHL in goals per game (3.51).

He takes on the red-hot Edmonton Oilers, who are on a historic 14 game winning streak and rank fourth in the NHL in goals per game (3.51).

Mrazek's 3.01 GAA and .907 SV% are his best totals in three seasons, considerably more impressive considering he plays for the defensively troubled Blackhawks. As a result of his strong play, Mrazek has been rewarded with a two-year, $8.5 million ($4,250,000 AAV) contract extension. He should continue to see an edge in starts over Arvid Soderblom for the remainder of the season.

Mrazek has won two straight and will return to the crease for the Blackhawks on Monday evening. Mrazek has been impressive lately for a low-scoring Blackhawks club, allowing three or fewer goals in six straight (3-3-0), posting a stellar .923 SV%. That said, Mrazek and the Blackhawks are +356 road underdogs against the Vancouver Canucks, who have won two straight and lead the league offensively, averaging 3.83 goals per game.

Mrazek will be back between the pipes for the Blackhawks on Friday after getting Thursday night off in favour of back-up netminder Arvid Soderblom. Mrazek has been in good form of late, posting a .929 SV% across his last five starts, though a predictable lack of goal support from his fellow Blackhawks means he's only been able to scrape together a pair of wins across that stretch. The 12-year-veteran has managed to post a respectable .907 SV% and an 11-16-1 record on the season despite playing behind one of the most underwhelming lineups in the league. As per usual, Mrazek and the Blackhawks find themselves as big underdogs on Friday, even on home ice, with the Islanders being favoured at -250 in Chicago.

Despite failing to register a win, Mrazek is amid a strong three-game stretch in which he has allowed only two goals in each contest, posting a .917 SV% against a series of difficult opponents. Mrazek will likely return to the crease on Monday against a more favourable foe, as the Blackhawks are a rare -145 home favourite against a San Jose Sharks team that was shut out 3-0 yesterday afternoon and has lost 14 of their last 15 games (1-14-0).

Mrazek wasn't tested heavily on Tuesday and allowed two goals on only 15 shots (.867 SV%) in a 2-1 loss to the Edmonton Oilers. He will return to the crease on Thursday for his third straight start as the Blackhawks take on another difficult foe, the Winnipeg Jets, who are riding a seven-game winning streak. Considering Mrazek plays on the second-worst offence in the league (2.36 GF / GP), it is remarkable that he has salvaged a 10-14-1 record along with a .902 SV%.

Mrazek will start the second straight game for the Blackhawks on Tuesday in a daunting matchup against the high-flying Edmonton Oilers. Mrazek was terrific on Sunday, saving 28 of 31 shots (.903 SV%) for an injury-depleted Blackhawks squad in a 4-3 victory over the Calgary Flames. That said, much of the Blackhawks roster remains injured heading into Tuesday's matchup, and, as such, they are significant +358 home underdogs against the Oilers, who are riding a seven-game winning streak. The Blackhawks last played the Oilers on December 12, when Mrazek allowed four goals on 29 shots (.862 SV%) in a 4-1 loss.
