Felcman was a third-round pick of the Blackhawks in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft that has earned a three-year, entry-level contract. The 20-year-old Czech forward had 20 points (3G / 17A) this season in 52 games with the Langnau Tigers (Swiss-A).

Knight was solid in his previous outing, saving 30 of 33 shots (.909 SV%), but came up short in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Nashville Predators. That said, the 24-year-old Knight, who has been serviceable all season in Chicago, has been reliable since returning from the Olympic break, posting a 2.71 GAA and .913 SV%, but unfortunately, it has not translated into a winning record: 2-3-3 in eight games.
