Welcome to August, Blackhawks fans! While it’s not September — which brings us both hockey and a mandated reason to listen to Earth, Wind & Fire — we’re one step closer to hockey season, which is nice. And there will be Bears football this month, so we’ve got that going for us, which is nice.
Before we jump into some hockey stuff, a standing ovation for Brett for staying awake and blogging for 40 consecutive hours in this year’s Blogathon. This morning, his efforts have raised more than $33,000 for Make-A-Wish, which is amazing.

— Bleacher Nation (@BleacherNation) July 31, 2025 Now, about the whole MLB trade deadline… I’m going to have more thoughts on that later today. My Ted Talk is in progress… stay tuned.The Cubs came into this week with a case to be considered the best team in the NL The Mets, Phillies, Padres have all sprinted past them in the past 48 hours. The Dodgers aren’t going anywhere. In the ONE year of control they got of Kyle Tucker, that’s not good enough
— Tab Bamford (@The1Tab) July 31, 2025 Now that we’re in August, officially the most deadest of all the months from a hockey perspective, I’m going to spend some time looking back at Blackhawks history with the organ-I-zation celebrating its centennial this coming season. If there’s anything you’d like to read about or discuss, please let me know in the comments (or fire off an email to me). This morning I wrote about some of the Blackhawks’ rookie records the next wave of kids will be chasing.Blackhawks History: Franchise Rookie Records t.co/comWdkkLwe
— Bleacher Nation Blackhawks (@BN_Blackhawks) August 1, 2025 NHL.com has been doing their offseason resets for all 32 teams and got to the Winnipeg Jets. They have Jonathan Toews penciled in at the second-line center in the projected lineup. The Jets had a magnificent regular season last year, but had a few interesting losses in free agency — specifically Nikolaj Ehlers — and Adam Lowry’s return to the lineup is TBD because of injury. There were no games at the World Junior Summer Showcase yesterday. Today we’ll get Canada vs. Sweden at 1 PM CT and the USA vs. Finland at 4:30 PM CT. Canada sent a few players home on Thursday as well. There are two more days of games left in the Showcase.Canada also sent its 8 returning players home:Jack Ivankovic (NSH)Carter George (LAK)Sam Dickinson (SJS)Matthew Schaefer (NYI)Gavin McKennaBerkly Catton (SEA)Porter Martone (PHI)Cole Beaudoin (UTA)
— Adam Kimelman (@NHLAdamK) July 31, 2025 Dom Luszczyszyn at The Athletic broke down his ten worst contracts in the NHL. No longer on the list: Seth Jones. In fact, there isn’t a Blackhawks contract even in the honorable mentions; I was at least slightly surprised Tyler Bertuzzi wasn’t in the honorable mentions. The Buffalo Sabres announced they signed goaltender Devon Levi to a two-year contract with a $812,500 AAV. There is one remaining arbitration case in the league. We’ll see if the Leafs and Nick Robertson’s camp can work something out before Sunday.There is one arbitration case remaining, set for SundayNick Robertson (TOR)Team: $1.2MPlayer: $2.25M
