Frank Nazar - Picks up first assist of 2024-25 Nazar notched an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Wild.
Impact The helper was Nazar's first career assist and first point in 2024-25. He's added five shots on net, four blocked shots, eight PIM and a minus-2 rating through six appearances at the NHL level. Nazar is one of the Blackhawks' top prospects and is getting a look in the NHL for now, though there's no telling if he'll finish the campaign with the big club.

Lukas Reichel - 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.

Ryan Donato - Snags assist in loss Donato logged an assist, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Wild.
Impact Donato helped out on Nick Foligno's second-period tally. With a point in five of the last seven contests, Donato continues to find ways to chip in on offense. The 28-year-old forward is up to 20 points, 78 shots on net, 57 hits, 22 PIM and an even plus-minus rating through 33 contests. He's on pace for a career year, and while playing in Chicago isn't attractive, Donato's got enough sandpaper in his game to bolster his fantasy value.

Taylor Hall - Earns two more assists Hall registered two assists, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Wild.
Impact Hall helped out on the first and last goals of the game, but the Blackhawks didn't do enough in between. This was his second two-assist effort in a row, and he's earned four multi-point efforts with a total of five goals and seven helpers over his last 14 appearances. The winger has just 18 points through 34 outings overall, but his recent performance is a level of offense that can help in most fantasy formats. Hall has added 67 shots on net, 24 blocked shots, 20 hits and a minus-8 rating this season.

Jason Dickinson - Finds twine in loss Dickinson scored a goal and added five hits in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Wild.
Impact Dickinson had gone four games without a point entering Monday. The center tallied late in the third period to bring the Blackhawks' within one, but the comeback effort fell short. He's up to seven goals, 12 points, 33 shots on net, 52 hits, 29 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 35 outings. Dickinson's physicality elevates his fantasy status a little bit, but the offense is modest for a center.

Nick Foligno - Nets goal Monday Foligno scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Wild.
Impact Both the 37-year-old and his younger brother, Marcus Foligno, tallied in this contest. The Blackhawks' Foligno put his team ahead 2-1 in the second period, though Jared Spurgeon offered a quick response for the Wild. Foligno has produced two goals and four assists over 11 appearances in December, which is solid work for a winger in a middle-six role without power-play time. Overall, he has eight goals, 15 points, 50 shots on net, 92 hits and a minus-12 rating through 34 outings.

Connor Bedard - Opens scoring in loss Bedard scored a goal on two shots, added three hits and logged two PIM in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Wild.
Impact Bedard opened the scoring at 6:47 of the first period. He has five tallies and eight assists over 12 outings in a productive December. The 19-year-old center is up to nine goals, 30 points, 85 shots on net and a minus-12 rating over 35 appearances, though he remains firmly in a top-line role. He's on a virtually identical scoring pace to last year, when he had 61 points in 68 outings as a rookie.

Arvid Soderblom - Loses to Wild Soderblom stopped 23 of 26 shots in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Wild. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
Impact Soderblom technically didn't give up the decisive goal -- Marcus Foligno's empty-netter -- but he'll take the loss as the only Chicago goalie to appear in the contest. This wasn't a great performance for Soderblom, who saw his three-game winning streak snapped. He's allowed at least three goals in five of his eight outings in December so far, though he's 4-4-0 for the month. Overall, the Swede is 5-8-1 with a 2.60 GAA and a .911 save percentage over 14 appearances. The Blackhawks could turn to alternating Soderblom and Petr Mrazek's starts now that both are healthy, though the veteran Mrazek saw a heavy workload prior to a groin injury early in December.

Ilya Mikheyev - Goal streak at four games Mikheyev scored a goal on five shots in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Flames.
Impact Mikheyev has five goals and an assist during his four-game point streak. The 30-year-old winger brought the Blackhawks within a goal late in the third period, but the comeback fell short. He's up to seven goals, five assists, 54 shots on net and a plus-3 rating over 32 appearances this season. Mikheyev is worth a look as a streaming option in fantasy, as it seems unlikely he'll be able to sustain his recent success.

Teuvo Teravainen - Another two-point effort Saturday Teravainen notched two assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Flames.
Impact Both points came in the third period as Chicago tried to rally from a 5-1 deficit. Teravainen has reeled off four straight multi-point performances, erupting for a goal and 10 points over that stretch while seeing regular shifts with Connor Bedard, both at even strength and on the top power-play unit.

Taylor Hall - Two helpers in Saturday's loss Hall picked up two assists in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Flames.
Impact The veteran winger had a hand in tallies by Connor Bedard in the second period and Tyler Bertuzzi in the third. Hall remains somewhat inconsistent and dependent on shifts with Bedard for his offense, but over the last seven games he's collected two goals and six points with 14 shots on net and a plus-2 rating,
