Alex Vlasic - Unavailable against Blues Vlasic (upper body) won't play Saturday against St. Louis, according to Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.
Impact Vlasic will miss his fourth straight contest. He has produced six points, 29 shots on goal, 51 blocked shots and 19 hits across 27 outings this season. When he is able to return, Isaak Phillips or Louis Crevier could be sent back to AHL Rockford.

Tyler Johnson - Not playing Saturday Johnson (undisclosed) won't play Saturday versus the Blues, according to Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.
Impact Johnson did not make the trip to St. Louis after logging just 13:37 of ice time in Friday's 5-2 loss to Montreal. He has provided seven goals, 11 points and 51 shots on net in 32 games this season. Johnson will be replaced in the lineup by Cole Guttman.

Arvid Soderblom - Set to guard road net Saturday Soderblom is slated to start in Saturday's road game against St. Louis, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Impact Soderblom has lost his last five appearances while surrendering 21 goals on 137 shots (.847 save percentage). It's been a rough campaign for him overall too -- through 14 outings, he has a 2-10-1 record, 4.00 GAA and .872 save percentage. At least St. Louis, which is tied for 24th offensively this year with 2.88 goals per game, is a favorable matchup.

Ryan Donato - Nets goal vs. Canadiens Donato scored a goal in a 5-2 loss to Montreal on Friday.
Impact Donato provided his second tally and third point over his last two games, bringing him up to six goals and 13 points in 30 contests this year. His offensive pace is a little better than what it was in Seattle when he finished with 14 goals and 27 points in 2022-23, though that's not surprising given his increased role. Donato is averaging 14:11 of ice time this campaign, up from 11:15 last year.

Jason Dickinson - Scores in loss to Montreal Dickinson collected a goal in a 5-2 loss to Montreal on Friday.
Impact Dickinson found the back of the net early in the second period to increase Chicago's lead to 2-0, although it was all downhill from there for the Blackhawks. Nevertheless, the 28-year-old snapped his five-game scoring drought. He has 10 goals, 15 points, 27 PIM, 47 hits and 32 blocks in 32 contests this season while serving in a middle-six role. Dickinson is unlikely to see his offensive pace increase as the campaign progresses, especially because he's seldom utilized on the power play.
DECEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Petr Mrazek - Allows four goals in loss Mrazek stopped 23 of 27 shots in a 5-2 loss to Montreal on Friday.
Impact Mrazek surrendered three goals on 11 shots in the second period and was beaten a fourth time in the third frame. Montreal's final goal was scored on an empty net. That defeat dropped Mrazek to 8-11-0 with a 3.09 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 21 contests. Those 2023-24 numbers are actually fairly solid when you consider he's attempting to prop up the Blackhawks while they're still in the early stages of their rebuild. However, that moral victory doesn't alter the likelihood that he'll finish the season with a sub-.500 winning percentage and a GAA around or above 3.00.
