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).

Jarred Tinordi will draw into the Blackhawks' lineup on Wednesday against the Seattle Kraken in favour of Phillips. Phillips played the last three games for the Blackhawks, registering five hits, and a -4 plus/minus.
Petr Mrazek was rewarded with a two-year contract extension on Wednesday, but the Blackhawks will turn to Soderblom between the pipes for only his second start in the last two weeks. Despite his lack of play, Soderblom has been serviceable lately, allowing three or fewer goals in his last three starts (0-3-0) and posting a solid .918 SV%. That said, the Blackhawks are +262 road underdogs against a Seattle Kraken team outscored 15-5 in their last four games (0-4-0).
Bertuzzi was not at practice on Tuesday and will be away from the team again on Wednesday, missing the Maple Leafs contest against the Winnipeg Jets to attend to the birth of his child. Bertuzzi had one point in the Maple Leafs' previous contest, snapping a three-game pointless skid.
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.
After serving as the backup for four straight games (2-2-0), Brossoit will return to the crease on Wednesday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Brossoit has been tremendous between the pipes for the Jets lately, allowing two or fewer goals in six straight (5-1-0), boasting a dazzling .952 SV%.
Bertuzzi did not practice on Tuesday to attend to the birth of his child, but he could be ready to play on Wednesday against the Winnipeg Jets. Bertuzzi had one point in the Maple Leafs' previous contest, snapping a three-game pointless skid.
The move was retroactive to January 16th. Murphy has played all 43 games for the Blackhawks this season, scoring eight points (2G / 6A), tallying 93 hits, and 105 blocks.
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.
Reichel has played every game since December 3rd but will join Cole Guttman as a healthy scratch to allow Ryan Donato and Nick Foligno to make their returns to the lineup. Reichel has only one point (0G / 1A) in his last 11 games.
