Registers two assists Thursday Nazar logged two two assists, including one on the power play, and added two shots on net, two hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Kings.

Impact Nazar helped out on Connor Bedard's opening goal and set up Wyatt Kaiser's tally -- the eventual game-winner -- late in the second period. With five helpers over his last four games, Nazar has found his playmaking touch amid a goal drought that reached 15 contests Thursday. On the year, the 21-year-old center is at five goals, 15 helpers, 53 shots on net, 23 blocks, 18 hits, 14 PIM and an even plus-minus rating through 25 appearances. Nazar's been productive enough overall to be rostered in most fantasy formats.

Assist in three straight games Nazar distributed an assist, put four shots on goal and served two PIM in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Kraken.

Impact Nazar had the secondary helper on Tyler Bertuzzi's opening goal. After missing two games with an abdominal injury, Nazar has been heavily involved since his return with an assist in each of his last three contests. The 21-year-old center has nine assists, 14 points and 40 shots on goal in 18 games this season. He's already 12 points away from tying his 26-point output in 53 games a season ago. Nazar is slated for a career year in Chicago's top six and first power-play unit, giving him viability in nearly all fantasy formats if he can stay healthy.

Picks up helper in return Nazar logged an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Maple Leafs.

Impact Nazar missed two games with an abdominal injury, but he returned with 18:54 of ice time in his usual second-line role. The 21-year-old center set up a Teuvo Teravainen goal in the third period, which tied the game at 2-2. Prior to the injury, Nazar was in a five-game point drought. He's up to 12 points, 33 shots on net, 18 blocked shots, 11 hits and a plus-3 rating over 16 appearances. He's still young, so there will be some ups and downs, but he looks poised to be one of the league's breakout players in 2025-26.

Dach scores late in 3rd period to lead Blackhawks to 3-2 win over Maple Leafs

Good to play Saturday Nazar (abdomen) is expected to play against Toronto on Saturday, per Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio.

Impact Nazar missed the Blackhawks' previous two games. He has five goals and 11 points in 15 outings this season. Nazar's return corresponds with Tyler Bertuzzi (undisclosed) exiting the lineup. The 21-year-old Nazar is set to serve on the second line alongside Oliver Moore and Teuvo Teravainen.

NOVEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time decision Saturday Nazar (abdomen) will be a game-time decision against the Maple Leafs on Saturday, Mark Lazerus of The Athletic reports.

Impact Nazar has missed the last two games with the injury. The 21-year-old has five goals and six assists in 15 games. Nazar will likely return to his spot on the second line, should he be cleared to play.

NOVEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Status uncertain Saturday Nazar (abdomen) is questionable to face the Maple Leafs on Saturday, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.

Impact Nazar has been trying to work his way back from his two-game absence but may be sidelined for a third. The young center is currently stuck in a five-game pointless streak during which he recorded 13 shots, seven blocks and one hit while averaging 17:24 of ice time. Once given the all-clear, Nazar should be in the mix for a top-six role, which would likely drop Ryan Greene back down the lineup.

Set to miss out Wednesday Nazar (undisclosed) isn't expected to face the Devils on Wednesday but remains day-to-day, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.

Impact Prior to getting hurt, Nazar was mired in a five-game pointless streak during which he recorded 13 shots, seven blocks and one hit. Despite the recent slump, the 21-year-old center remains on pace to top his 2024-25 numbers and set new career highs in both goals and assists. In the meantime, Ryan Greene will remain in the second-line center role for the Hawks heading into Wednesday's matchup with New Jersey.

Won't play Sunday Nazar (undisclosed) won't play Sunday against the Red Wings,Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio reports.

Impact Nazar and Sam Lafferty both took warmups, but the 21-year-old won't go after being injured against the Flames on Friday; Lafferty will play. Despite his absence from Sunday's game, there is little concern that the injury could lead to a lengthier absence. The Blackhawks aren't in action again until Wednesday, so odds are pretty good Nazar, who has 11 points in 15 games this year, would draw back in then.

NOVEMBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time decision Nazar will be a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Red Wings, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Nazar was injured during Friday's game against the Flames, but whether he plays in Sunday's matinee against the Red Wings or not, there isn't a ton of concern this could be a lengthy lineup absence. The 21-year-old has 11 points (five goals, six assists) through 15 games so far but none in his last five. Should the young center miss the game Sunday, expect Sam Lafferty to draw into the lineup in his place.

Deemed day-to-day Nazar (undisclosed) is considered day-to-day and could still play Sunday versus the Red Wings after suffering an injury Friday against the Flames, Mark Lazerus of The Athletic repo...

Impact The Blackhawks will wait and see how Nazar's recovery progresses in the next couple of days, but this is a positive update. Nazar's absence looks to be likely minimal, if there is one at all. Should he miss time, Sam Lafferty would likely get into the lineup while Ryan Donato or Nick Foligno could see extra minutes.

Departs Friday's game Nazar (undisclosed) will not return to Friday's game versus the Flames.

Impact Nazar was injured in the first period after an awkward fall following a hit. The 21-year-old has emerged as a key part of the Blackhawks' top six with 11 points in 15 games, so any potential absence would be a big loss. It's unclear if he'll be ready to play Sunday in Detroit.
