Deposits goal Reichel scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Oilers.

Impact Reichel has two goals and three assists across his last 10 outings. The 22-year-old scored late in the second period to tie Wednesday's contest at 1-1. Reichel is up to five goals and 16 points through 46 games this season, exactly matching his production from 65 appearances last year. He's added 52 shots on net and a minus-7 rating while mainly seeing bottom-six usage, which makes him a risky option in fantasy.

Bags apple in overtime loss Reichel notched an assist in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Lightning.

Impact Reichel helped out on Louis Crevier's second-period tally. The 22-year-old Reichel has three points over his last five contests and looks to have regained some stability in the lineup as a bottom-six option. He centered the third line Friday but saw just 11:32 of ice time, though the Blackhawks' trade of Taylor Hall to the Hurricanes leaves them with no healthy extra forwards on the roster currently. Reichel is 14 points, 49 shots on net and a minus-5 rating over 41 appearances.

Scores in win Saturday Reichel scored a goal in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Reichel has struggled to produce points at a consistent rate this season, but he's done it in two of his last three outings, so he might be aiming to turn things around with the All-Star break right around the corner. That said, Reichel has notched just five points (two goals, three assists) across his last 20 games, so he's not expected to be a reliable fantasy option in most formats, especially considering his bottom-six role.

Garners assist Monday Reichel registered an assist and two PIM in Monday's 5-2 loss to Calgary.

Impact Reichel's spot in the lineup has been at risk in January -- this was just his third appearance over six games this month. He was on a line with Frank Nazar and Colton Dach, which could be a good unit for Chicago to keep together, though they're all young players who could benefit from shifts with a veteran at times. Reichel is now at 12 points, 44 shots on net and a minus-6 rating through 37 appearances this season, mainly in a bottom-six role, though he has retained a spot on the second power-play unit.

JANUARY 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Slings helper Reichel notched an assist in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Wild.

Impact Reichel set up a Jason Dickinson tally late in the third period. The helper ended Reichel's nine-game point drought, during which he went minus-5 with just three shots on net. A fourth-line role won't help him get his scoring on track, though he's had a little success there at times. For the season, the 22-year-old has 10 points, 39 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 31 appearances, a pace that would at least give him career highs in games played and points.

Pots lone goal in loss Reichel scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Maple Leafs.

Impact Reichel continues to play as the fourth-line center, though a power-play role has allowed him to carve out a little more ice time. He has three points and 12 shots on net over his last five contests. For the season, the 22-year-old forward is at three goals, six helpers, 36 shots on net, 12 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 21 appearances.

DECEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Collects two points Saturday Reichel notched a goal and an assist in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to Philadelphia.

Impact Reichel's second multi-point performance of 2024-25 gave the Blackhawks a 2-0 lead going into the third period. However, the Flyers scored three straight goals afterward to claim the victory. Reichel also had a team-high five shots on net in Saturday's defeat. He has two goals and eight points through 17 outings this season.

NOVEMBER 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Generates power-play helper Reichel notched a power-play assist and two PIM in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.

Impact Reichel has a helper in consecutive contests after assisting on a Seth Jones tally in the second period. The 22-year-old Reichel continues to see limited minutes at even strength, but he's playing on the power play to give him a little more scoring potential. He now has a goal, five assists, 16 shots on net and a plus-2 rating over nine appearances.

NOVEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Finds twine in win Reichel scored a goal in Monday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche.

Impact The goal was Reichel's first of the season. The 22-year-old was back in a fourth-line role Monday after threatening to move up over the weekend, though he also remains in the power-play mix. Despite limited minutes, he's done fairly well so far, earning four points, 11 shots on net, three hits, four blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over six contests since he entered the lineup Oct. 17.

OCTOBER 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Manages helper in loss Reichel logged an assist in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Predators.

Impact Reichel set up Craig Smith's goal early in the first period, as those two forwards continue to click in limited roles. The 22-year-old Reichel has three assists, nine shots on net, three blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over four appearances this season. If he continues to play well, he could move up the lineup, though anything less than a top-line role will lead to too little offense to be helpful in fantasy.

OCTOBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Dishes two assists Reichel notched two assists and four shots on goal in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Sabres.

Impact The 22-year-old winger set up both of Craig Smith's tallies in this contest. Reichel was scratched for the first four games of the year and has been stuck on the fourth line for the last two contests. While it's good that he's playing, limited ice time in the NHL on a rebuilding team isn't necessarily a positive for a player that would likely benefit from more development in the AHL. He had just 16 points in 65 contests a year ago, though that mostly came from seeing middle-six minutes.

Signs two-year extension Reichel signed a two-year, $2.4 million contract extension with the Blackhawks on Tuesday.

Impact Reichel hasn't really lived up to expectations since being selected 17th overal in the 2020 Entry Draft -- he logged a career-high 65 games at the NHL level in 2023-24, but the 21-year-old forward managed just five goals and 16 points while posting an ugly minus-29 rating over that span. Reichel will likely be a full-time NHLer in 2024-25, but if he doesn't get his game together at the top level soon, he may not last with the Blackhawks beyond this two-year extension.

MAY 7, 2024 • NHL.COM

Reassigned to AHL Reichel was sent to AHL Rockford on Friday.

Impact Reichel will get in some playoff action at the AHL level, as the Blackhawks failed to make the playoffs. Reichel managed five goals and 11 assists in 65 games with Chicago, while scoring one and adding six helpers in nine games with the IceHogs.

Buries goal Thursday Reichel scored a goal in Thursday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Kings.

Impact Reichel showed some life late in the season with two goals and three assists over the last nine contests. His tally Thursday opened the scoring. He wraps up with 16 points, 84 shots on net and a minus-29 rating over 65 appearances, mainly in a middle-six role. At 21 years old, there's still time for Reichel to get his scoring touch on track at the NHL level, and he'll have every chance to make the Blackhawks' roster out of training camp in the fall.

Contributes helper in loss Reichel notched an assist and two shots on goal in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Reichel has four points over his last seven contests while seeing middle-six minutes in that span. The 21-year-old winger is up to 15 points through 63 outings, matching his output from 23 games a year ago. Needless to say, Reichel has not taken the expected next step in 2023-24. He's added 82 shots on net, a minus-30 rating, 25 hits and 25 blocked shots.

APRIL 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Two points Saturday Reichel picked up a goal and an assist in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Flyers.

Impact Reichel opened the scoring just 2:01 into the first period, beating Samuel Ersson to the far post on a wraparound for his first NHL goal since Dec. 19. Reichel would add an assist on Joey Anderson's tally in the third, giving the 21-year-old winger his first multi-point game this season. Reichel had just one assist in his prior six games following his recall from the AHL on March 17. Overall, he has four goals and 13 points through 57 games this season.
