Drew Commesso - NHL News & Rumors

Sent to AHL Commesso was assigned to AHL Rockford on Sunday.

Impact Commesso went 1-1-0 in Chicago's last two games, stopping 55 of 60 shots and posting a 36-save shutout in Saturday's 3-0 win over Nashville. The Blackhawks also returned Stanislav Berezhnoy to the minors, which could bode well for the availability of Spencer Knight (illness) and Arvid Soderblom (illness) ahead of Monday's home matchup against Edmonton.

First win comes via shutout Commesso posted a 36-save shutout in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Predators.

Impact Commesso started for the second day in a row, but he was able to handle the ample traffic the Predators were able to direct to the net. The 23-year-old netminder has allowed five goals on 60 shots over his two outings this season. Commesso will be with the Blackhawks until Spencer Knight and Arvid Soderblom are recovered from the illness that has ravaged Chicago's roster. Commesso's not yet in a position to challenge Soderblom for the backup role, but he has been steady between the pipes for AHL Rockford.

Starting again Saturday Commesso will start on the road versus the Predators on Saturday, Alex Daugherty of The Tennessean reports.

Impact Commesso will get the nod for consecutive games as the Blackhawks appear to still be missing Spencer Knight (illness) and Arvid Soderblom (illness). Commesso allowed five goals on 24 shots Friday versus the Capitals after starting on short notice. Given the likelihood that the team in front of him is far below 100 percent health, Commesso is a risky fantasy option.

Loses season debut Commesso stopped 19 of 24 shots in Friday's 5-1 loss to the Capitals.

Impact Commesso received a tough assignment, filling in for Spencer Knight (illness) and Arvid Soderblom (illness) on short notice. The 23-year-old Commesso wasn't up to the challenge, though the depleted lineup in front of him didn't do any favors. He may be needed to start Saturday in Nashville as well if Knight and Soderblom remain under the weather with the stomach bug that is ravaging the Blackhawks' locker room.

Recalled by Chicago Commesso was recalled from AHL Rockford on Friday.

Impact Arvid Soderblom was absent from morning skate ahead of Friday's game against the Capitals due to an illness. While Spencer Knight will operate as the starter against Washington, Commesso's recall signals that Soderblom will likely be inactive, which would put Commesso in line to operate as the backup. If Soderblom is forced to miss additional time, Commesso could start in Nashville on Saturday in the second half of a back-to-back set.

Dazzles for Rockford on Saturday Commesso posted a 38-save shutout in AHL Rockford's 4-0 win over Colorado on Saturday.

Impact Commesso was excellent in his third win of the season. He's now at a 2.69 GAA and a .922 save percentage over five games, going 3-2-0. The 23-year-old netminder will try to dominate the AHL this season, though he could get a call-up if Spencer Knight or Arvid Soderblom is unavailable for the Blackhawks.

Sent down Monday Commesso was assigned to AHL Rockford on Monday.

Impact Commesso spent some time with the Blackhawks during training camp, but he'll officially head back to the minors ahead of the regular season. The 23-year-old made 39 regular-season appearances for Rockford last year and went 18-15-4 with a 2.54 GAA and .911 save percentage. He'll be a candidate to be called up by Chicago if Spencer Knight or Arvid Soderblom deal with injuries.

Starting Sunday Commesso will defend the road net in Sunday's preseason game against Minnesota, per Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.

Impact Commesso posted a record of 18-15-4 with four shutouts, a 2.54 GAA and a .911 save percentage in 39 appearances for AHL Rockford during the 2024-25 regular season. He will probably spend most, if not all, of this campaign in the minors.

Sent to AHL Commesso was reassigned to AHL Rockford on Thursday, Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio reports.

Impact Commesso spent a week and a half with the NHL club since Petr Mrazek (groin) was sidelined. However, Commesso made just two appearances (one start) during his time with Chicago, posting an 0-1-0 record, 3.38 GAA and .846 save percentage. He'll head back to the minors, where he should see more consistent playing time, after Mrazek was activated from injured reserve Thursday.

Overwhelmed in third period Commesso made 20 saves Saturday in a 4-1 loss to the Devils.

Impact It was Commesso's first NHL start, and he had a 1-0 lead heading into the third period. But the Devils overwhelmed the Hawks that frame, including their final three goals which came in 2:06. Commesso is now part of a tandem that's looking to turn around a stretch where they have lost seven of eight. He's bound to struggle -- the Hawks are a bad defensive team. Let someone else scoop him off the wire.
