Chicago Blackhawks - St. Louis Blues - Oct 5, 2024 | NHL.comNHL Gamecenter - Chicago Blackhawks vs. St. Louis Blues, Oct 5, 2024 - summary, stats, boxscore, play by play, recap and more.
Arvid Soderblom - Slated to start SaturdaySoderblom is set to guard the home goal in Saturday's preseason game against St. Louis, per Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.
ImpactAlthough Chicago is technically the home team, the exhibition contest is taking place in Milwaukee. Soderblom had a 5-22-2 record, 3.92 GAA and .879 save percentage across 32 games with Chicago in 2023-24. Petr Mrazek will enter the 2024-25 campaign as the Blackhawks' starting goaltender while Soderblom is set to be the understudy.

Daemon Hunt - Put on waiversHunt was placed on waivers by the Wild on Saturday.
ImpactOver the course of the 2023-24 regular season, Hunt recorded three goals and 29 points in 51 contests with AHL Iowa as well as an assist in 12 appearances with Minnesota. The 22-year-old is expected to start the campaign in the AHL if he clears waivers, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him summoned to Minnesota at some point during 2024-25.

Ben Jones - Goes on waiversJones was placed on waivers by the Wild on Saturday.
ImpactJones is expected to pass through waivers and be sent to AHL Iowa. The center had 21 goals, 22 assists and 59 PIM in 72 regular-season appearances with AHL Calgary in 2023-24.

Seth Jones - Nets lone goal in lossJones scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Friday's 6-1 preseason loss to the Wild.
ImpactJones got the Blackhawks on the board late in the second period, but the Wild restored a two-goal advantage with Mats Zuccarello's power-play tally. Over three preseason games, Jones put up two points. The 30-year-old defenseman will open 2024-25 on the top pairing and see significant power-play usage, but he's missed the 40-point mark in four of the last five years and will likely also carry a horrendous plus-minus rating throughout the season.

Petr Mrazek - Yields six goals in lossMrazek gave up six goals on 34 shots in Friday's 6-1 preseason loss to the Wild.
ImpactThe Blackhawks played a sloppy game -- the Wild scored within two minutes of a previous on three occasions, including responding to Chicago's lone tally late in the second period. Mrazek turned heads in 2023-24 with a 3.04 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 56 games for a defensively leaky Blackhawks roster, and by allowing 11 goals on 92 shots in the preseason, there's proof that this lineup has a long way to go before its competitive. That said, Mrazek should be able to keep things close most of the time while seeing a starting role.
