Gavin Hayes - Hat trick in AHL loss Hayes scored three goals in AHL Rockford's 5-4 loss to San Diego on Saturday.

Impact Hayes has six goals over his last seven games. He has just 12 goals and 22 points through 48 appearances this season, but he's found a stronger finishing touch lately. The third-round pick of the Blackhawks (2022) is still likely a year or more away from potentially contributing at the NHL level.

He is expected to play for AHL Rockford as netminder Stanislav Berezhnoy is currently serving a 20-game suspension. Rodrigue made his NHL debut last season with Edmonton, going 0-1-0 while allowing four goals on 25 shots across two games.

Nathan Behm - Pots two goals in overtime loss Behm scored twice in WHL Kamloops' 3-2 overtime loss to Kelowna on Friday.

Impact Behm set a career high in goals with this effort -- he now has 33 in 55 contests after scoring 31 times in 59 regular-season outings a year ago. Behm is up to 77 points, 198 shots on net and a plus-10 rating this season. The Blackhawks prospect's stock has been firmly on the rise over the last two years, though it still remains to be seen how his production will translate at higher levels.

Jason Dickinson - Exits Thursday's practice early Dickinson left Thursday's practice session early due to an illness, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Dickinson has missed just one game since mid-November, and he's recorded six goals, seven assists, 45 hits, 33 blocked shots and 10 PIM while averaging 15:43 of ice time over 43 appearances this season. The Blackhawks don't resume play until Feb. 26 against the Predators, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Dickinson recover in time to suit up for that matchup.

Roman Kantserov - Reaches 30-goal mark in KHL Kantserov scored a goal in Metallurg Magnitogorsk's 4-3 shootout win over Salavat Yulaev Ufa on Friday in the KHL.

Impact With the tally, Kantserov reached the 30-goal mark for the season. He's up to 54 points in 50 outings, including four points over his last five games. The Blackhawks prospect continues to impress, and that will likely make Chicago interested in getting him signed to an entry-level deal for 2026-27 and beyond.

Dominic Toninato - Four points in AHL win Toninato scored a goal and added three assists in AHL Rockford's 6-2 win over Milwaukee on Saturday.

Impact Toninato has seven points over four outings in February. That's a surge for the forward, who has still been pretty good for the IceHogs with 12 goals and 34 points over 41 outings this season. Toninato could get a call-up later in the season for the Blackhawks if they need to replenish their forward depth.

Jack Pridham - Racks up three points in OHL win Pridham scored a goal and added two assists in OHL Kitchener's 4-2 win over Kingston on Friday.

Impact Pridham hit the 70-point mark for the season with this effort. It's taken him just 51 games to get there, and he's surged to the mark with 12 goals and 16 assists over his last 15 outings. He's one of a handful of Blackhawks prospects having a strong 2025-26, and he's doing so on a Kitchener team that could make a deep run in the OHL playoffs.

FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Marek Vanacker - Scores twice for Bulldogs Vanacker scored two goals in OHL Brantford's 5-1 win over Erie on Friday.

Impact Vanacker reached the 100-goal and 200-point milestones in his junior career with this effort. He's taken his game to a new level in 2025-26 with 37 goals (a career high) and 61 points in 45 outings, good for a 1.36 points-per-game pace. The Blackhawks prospect will look for a deep postseason run with Brantford this spring before presumably stepping up to the AHL in 2026-27.
