Impact Entwistle is expected to report to AHL Charlotte if he goes unclaimed.

Inks two-way agreement Entwistle signed a one-year, two-way contract with Florida on Tuesday.

Impact Entwistle didn't receive a qualifying offer from Chicago this offseason, making him an unrestricted free agent. He will add some physicality to Florida's bottom-six group but likely won't contribute much offensively. Entwistle only has 15 goals and 35 points in 193 career NHL appearances.

APRIL 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Earns helper against Blues Entwistle notched an assist in a 5-2 loss to St. Louis on Wednesday.

Impact Entwistle seems to have found his offensive game of late, recording one goal on four shots and two assists in his last five outings. If the 24-year-old winger can earn three more points in the last four games of the year, he will top the career high of 12 he set back in 2021-22 as a rookie.

APRIL 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Scores goal in loss Entwistle found the back of the net on one shot against the Red Wings on Sunday.

Impact Entwistle has managed just one shot over his last six contests, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that he was mired in a 36-game goal drought during which he recorded one assist. The 24-year-old winger shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value moving forward given his limited offensive upside.

Back in lineup Tuesday Entwistle (illness) will be in action versus the Avalanche on Tuesday, Mark Lazerus of The Athletic reports.

Impact Entwistle will return following a two-game absence due to his illness. The 24-year-old winger is mired in an eight-game goal drought during which he has managed just 10 shots and one assist. Given his fourth-line role and limited offensive upside, fantasy players probably shouldn't be banking on Entwistle offering more than low-end fantasy value.

Generates assist Entwistle logged an assist, three hits and two PIM in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Blues.

Impact Entwistle snapped his five-game point drought with the helper. The 24-year-old forward is not a regular contributor on offense, but he's mustered five points over 19 contests overall. He's added 23 shots on net, 31 hits, 10 PIM and a minus-4 rating. Entwistle will need to keep his play steady in a fourth-line role to avoid getting rotated out of the lineup on occasion.

DECEMBER 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores second goal of season Entwistle scored a goal in Tuesday's 4-3 home win against the Kraken.

Impact Entwistle scored midway through the second period, and his goal ended up being the game-winning tally, with a helper to Joey Anderson. As such, Entwistle secured second star honors.

The 24-year-old forward produced 10 points and 126 hits in 66 outings last season. With more talent on Chicago's roster to begin 2023-24, Entwistle may be limited to a part-time gig.

Provides goal vs. Penguins Entwistle contributed a goal in Chicago's 5-2 victory over Pittsburgh on Tuesday.

Impact Entwistle brought his 12-game scoring slump to an end. Through 65 contests this season, he has four markers and 10 points. If Entwistle can manage to tally a goal against Philadelphia in Chicago's season finale Thursday, then he'll tie the career high he established in 2021-22.

Entwistle has eight points, 33 shots on net, 93 hits and a minus-6 rating through 48 outings. He'll likely remain on the Blackhawks' checking line, so his chances of improving on offense are slim.
