The Blackhawks threw their lineup in a blender and hit the high button on Saturday at practice. One noteworthy insertion is defenseman Kevin Korchinski, who will finally get into the lineup. After practice, here’s what head coach Jeff Blashill said his messaging is to Korchinski as he skates for the second time this season:
“We want to get Korch in there, give him an opportunity as well. My thing to Korch was make sure he makes quick decisions with the puck, but he doesn’t panic with the puck. When he handles the pressure he’s going to face tomorrow, he’s got to make sure he’s not throwing it around, that he knows he has great intent of what he’s doing with the puck every time he touches it.”

— BHF (@BlackhawksFocus) October 24, 2026 Over the past couple weeks there’s been a lot of talk about how Blashill talks about truly trusting only the Blackhawks’ own stats over what’s available to those of us outside the organization. I highly recommend a looong tweet from Scott Powers on Saturday night in which he outlines how he personally went back and tracked the first period of Friday night’s game himself to compare his numbers to the ones Blashill cited at practice on Saturday and what we see on Natural Stat Trick. His tweet it too long to fully embed and it took me multiple screengrabs to get it all here. With an assist in the first period against the Mammoth on Saturday night, Nikita Kucherov passed Steven Stamkos to become the Tampa Bay Lightning’s career points leader. The Washington Capitals claimed defenseman Jack St. Ivany off waivers from the Winnipeg Jets. I mentioned him as a guy I was intrigued by for the Blackhawks on Saturday. He did get claimed, but not by Chicago.Blackhawks Prospect Highlights
