Resumes skating Blackwell (upper body) has been skating, but he has yet to be cleared for contact, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.
Impact Blackwell will miss a third straight contest Tuesday against Calgary. He's tallied just 12 points through 39 contests this season, so fantasy managers shouldn't need to keep tabs on his status.

Won't play Saturday Blackwell (upper body) won't play Saturday against San Jose, according to Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.
Impact Blackwell will miss his second straight contest. He has picked up eight goals, 12 points, 83 shots on net and 41 hits over 39 appearances this season. With the Blackhawks going to back six defensemen and 12 forwards in Saturday's contest, Mackenzie Entwistle will play and Jarred Tinordi will be scratched.

Out Thursday Blackwell (upper body) will miss Thursday's game against Anaheim, per Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.
Impact The extent of Blackwell's injury is still being assessed, so there isn't a timetable for his recovery yet beyond the fact that he won't play Thursday. The 30-year-old has eight goals and 12 points in 39 appearances this season. Mackenzie Entwistle will likely draw into the lineup due to Blackwell's absence.

Dealing with upper-body issue Blackwell has been diagnosed with an upper-body injury and won't practice Wednesday, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.
Impact Blackwell should probably be considered questionable ahead of Thursday's clash with Anaheim. In his last 11 games, the 30-year-old center has managed three goals, all in one game, to go with one assist and 23 shots. If Blackwell were to miss out, it could see youngster Landon Slaggert elevated to a third-line role.

Injured late Tuesday Blackwell suffered an undisclosed injury late in Tuesday's game versus the Kings, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Impact Head coach Luke Richardson didn't have an update on Blackwell's status after the forward went down in the third period. If Blackwell can't suit up Thursday versus the Ducks, Mackenzie Entwistle will likely draw into the lineup in a bottom-six role.

First NHL hat trick Blackwell scored three goals in Sunday's 7-4 win over Arizona.
Impact Blackwell tied the game 2-2 in the second period, sweeping a rebound past Connor Ingram, before adding a pair of tallies in the final frame to complete the first hat trick of his NHL career. The 30-year-old Blackwell had gone six games without a point prior to Sunday's outing. He's up to eight goals, four shy of a career high, and 11 points through 35 games this season.

Goals in consecutive games Blackwell scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Jets.
Impact Blackwell got the Blackhawks on the board in the second period. The 30-year-old forward has scored in back-to-back outings after posting just a single assist and 36 shots on net over his previous 16 games. He's at eight points, 60 shots, 35 hits and a minus-2 rating through 28 appearances. Blackwell is seeing time in a middle-six role, but his offense is too low for fantasy consideration in most formats.

Snaps goal drought Wednesday Blackwell scored his fourth goal of the season in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Flyers.
Impact The 30-year-old got Chicago on the board midway through the first period with a nifty move on Samuel Ersson, but it was all the offense the home side could muster. Blackwell snapped a 10-game point drought and a 16-game goalless streak in the process, and on the season he has only seven points in 27 games. He did see top-six minutes at even strength Wednesday, but Blackwell is still a long way from the fantasy radar.

Carries offense without Bedard Blackwell scored two goals, including the game-winner on the power play, and added an even-strength assist in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Flames.
Impact With Connor Bedard (jaw) sidelined, Chicago needs someone to step up and carry the offense, and Blackwell made his case by beating Dan Vladar twice to the goalie's glove side. The 30-year-old Blackwell has never been a prolific scorer in the NHL, but he's never gotten a real chance to become one and has flashed some offensive potential at lower levels, producing 23 points (six goals, 17 helpers) in 26 games during his last extended stretch in the AHL back in 2019-20. Chicago has little to lose by seeing if he can become a consistent contributor in Bedard's absence.

Scores lone goal in loss Blackwell scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Rangers.
Impact It was the first goal of the season for Blackwell after he was sidelined for the opening 30 games of the year due to a groin problem. Considering the Massachusetts native managed a mere two goals in 53 games last season, fantasy players probably shouldn't be banking on him scoring with consistency this year.
