Impact Korchinski appeared in his first two NHL games of the season in his latest stint with the Blackhawks, registering an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots with an average of 13:59 of ice time per game. The 21-year-old will head back to AHL Rockford, where he has 19 points (two goals, 17 assists) in 39 games.

Picks up helper Korchinski notched an assist, two shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Predators.

Impact Korchinski had poor results against the Capitals on Friday but put together a better effort in Saturday's game. The 21-year-old blueliner will stay in the lineup as long as Louis Crevier (illness) is out. Korchinski had 19 points in 32 AHL games with Rockford prior to his call-up, but his consistency at the NHL level is still a work in progress, and he's struggled to keep up with the Blackhawks' other defensive prospects.

Sent to minors Korchinski was reassigned to AHL Rockford on Wednesday, per Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio.

Impact Korchinski had a goal and an assist in 16 outings with the Blackhawks in 2024-25. Chicago's season is over, so that's why Korchinski has returned to Rockford where he has three goals and 27 points across 54 appearances this campaign.

Lights lamp Thursday Korchinski scored a goal in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Bruins.

Impact This was Korchinski's first point in 15 NHL outings this season. The 20-year-old has needed some extra development time at AHL Rockford after posting 15 points and a minus-39 rating over 76 contests as a 19-year-old rookie last year. Korchinski has picked up 14 shots on net, 13 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating in 2024-25. He'll likely join AHL Rockford's playoff run at some point, but the Blackhawks clearly want to give him an extended look to evaluate his progress late in this campaign.
