Nets game-winning goal Kurashev scored the game-winning goal in Sunday's 2-1 overtime win over the Wild.

Impact Kurashev has three points over his last seven outings. His tally Sunday was his biggest of the season, allowing the Blackhawks to steal a win from a division rival. The 25-year-old forward has moved all over the lineup in 2024-25 but has most often ended up on the second line while seeing power-play time. He's up to three goals, one assist, 21 shots on net and a minus-11 rating through 15 appearances.

Puts up helper on top line Kurashev logged an assist and two PIM in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.

Impact Kurashev had played just about everywhere but the top line early in the season, but he was there with Connor Bedard and Ryan Donato on Sunday. The helper was Kurashev's third point to go with 17 shots on net, six PIM and a minus-8 rating through 12 appearances this season. The 25-year-old forward was successful last year in a similar role, so this may be enough to get his offense going, but the Blackhawks' wing depth is stronger this year. If Kurashev's performance dips, another tumble down the lineup could quickly follow.

Second goal of season Monday Kurashev notched a power-play goal in Monday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche.

Impact Kurashev scored his first power-play goal of the season and recorded a season-high four shots in this win. However, he's netted twice across nine appearances while averaging roughly 1.5 shots per game. The 25-year-old winger has failed to deliver a lot of fantasy production over the first few weeks of the season, which should be disappointing given his top-six role.

Nets goal in Saturday's win Kurashev scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Oilers.

Impact Kurashev opened the scoring at 15:50 of the first period. His goal was the only one for Chicago that didn't involve the first line or top power-play unit. Kurashev has centered the second line to begin the season, and being separated from Connor Bedard has not served the 25-year-old forward well. Kurashev has a minus-2 rating, seven shots on net and a hit in addition to his goal across three appearances.

One of each in Saturday's win Kurashev scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Saturday's 6-2 preseason win over the Blues.

Impact Both of Kurashev's points came on the power play. The 24-year-old was alongside Connor Bedard in this contest, but there's no guarantee that continues into the regular season, as Kurashev has mostly played on the second line so far. The 24-year-old could take a step back on offense as a result after racking up 18 goals and 54 points (19 on the power play) over 75 contests in 2023-24, primarily in a first-line role. The damage should be less noticeable if Kurashev's keeps his spot on the top power-play unit.

Garners assist Kurashev notched an assist and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact Kurashev has been strong to close out the campaign. He's racked up three goals and four assists over his last seven outings while continuing to play on the top line. The 24-year-old winger has 18 goals, 36 assists, 128 shots on net and a minus-42 rating through 74 games this season.

Lone scorer for Chicago in loss Kurashev powered a heavy slap shot on the power play for Chicago's lone tally as part of the Blackhawks' 5-1 loss to the Predators on Friday.

Impact Kurashev anticipated a simple pass from Connor Bedard on the man advantage and morphed it into a 91 MPH one-timer. Make it 18 goals for Kurashev, who's doubled his scoring output from last season, and he's registered 35 assists and 19 power-play points to boot. Kurashev is a talented player in his own right, but it turns out good things happen when you get to skate alongside a generational talent like Bedard, who is recognized even among casual hockey fans as the No. 1 overall pick from the 2023 NHL Entry Draft.

Key role in comeback win Kurashev scored a goal on four shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks.

Impact Kurashev scored the game-tying goal in the final minute of the third period and set up Seth Jones' game-winner in overtime. This was Kurashev's fifth multi-point effort over 11 appearances in March -- he's up to six goals and eight assists this month.

Impact Kurashev got the Blackhawks' comeback started late in the second period, deflecting a feed from Tyler Johnson on the rush past Devin Cooley, before adding an assist on Connor Bedards' empty-netter in the third. The 24-year-old Kurashev has 10 points (five goals, five assists) in his last eight games while maintaining a top-line role in Chicago. He's up to 14 goals and 42 points, both career highs, through 61 games this season.

Two of each in blowout win Kurashev scored twice and added two assists in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Ducks.

Impact One goal and one assist came on the power play for Kurashev in his best game of the campaign. He's racked up four goals and four helpers over six contests in March, providing strong offense from the top line and first power-play unit. For the season, the 24-year-old has 13 tallies, 40 points, 108 shots on net and a minus-38 rating over 59 appearances. He'll continue to have some fantasy intrigue as long as he's playing alongside Connor Bedard.

MARCH 13 • ROTOWIRE

Nets power-play marker Kurashev scored a power-play goal on two shots and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Coyotes.

Impact Kurashev has three points over his last three games. This was his first power-play point since Feb. 19 and his first tally with the man advantage since Dec. 31. The 24-year-old winger continues to enjoy playing alongside Connor Bedard on the top line and first power-play unit. Kurashev has 11 goals, 35 points, 101 shots on net and a minus-37 rating through 56 appearances.

MARCH 6 • ROTOWIRE

Factors on both goals in loss Kurashev scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist and went minus-2 in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.

Impact Kurashev reached the 10-goal mark late in the first period and then set up a Ryan Donato marker in the third. The 24-year-old Kurashev ended February on a four-game drought, but he's generally been productive relative to the rest of the Blackhawks since he's playing on a line with Connor Bedard. For the season, Kurashev has 34 points (10 on the power play), 98 shots on net and a minus-34 rating through 54 appearances.

MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE

Puts up power-play helper Kurashev logged a power-play assist in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Kurashev set up a Connor Bedard tally in the third period. The assist extended Kurashev's point streak to six games (one goals, seven helpers). He's at 32 points (10 on the power play), 89 shots on net and a minus-27 rating 49 outings overall. Kurashev's recent play makes him a solid addition for fantasy managers who don't have to worry about plus-minus or physicality.

FEBRUARY 20 • ROTOWIRE

Two helpers Saturday Kurashev picked up two assists in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Senators.

Impact The 24-year-old winger helped set up tallies by Nick Foligno in the first period and Connor Bedard in the second. Kurashev has a five-game point streak going in which he's collected a goal and seven points, and a spot on Chicago's top power-play unit and on a line with Bedard at even strength should allow him to stay productive. Kurashev's next goal will be his career-high 10th, and he's already set a new personal best on the season with 31 points in 48 games.

FEBRUARY 18 • ROTOWIRE

Nets lone goal in loss Kurashev scored a goal on three shots and went minus-2 in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Penguins.

Impact Kurashev has five points over his last four games, though this was his first goal since Jan. 7. The 24-year-old had been working as a center, but he shifted back to the wing with Connor Bedard (jaw) back in the lineup. Kurashev is at nine goals, matching his career high from last season. He's added 20 helpers, 88 shots on net and a minus-27 rating through 47 appearances. Kurashev's offense-only production will have limited appeal in fantasy, but he has more upside as long as he's playing with Bedard at even strength and on the power play.

FEBRUARY 16 • ROTOWIRE

Hits 20-assist plateau Kurashev notched a power-play assist in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Canucks.

Impact Kurashev has done his part as a playmaker lately with five helpers over his last six contests. He set up a Tyler Johnson tally in the second period of Tuesday's games. Kurashev has been a solid contributor in a weak offense, earning 28 points (nine on the power play) with 85 shots on net and a minus-25 rating through 46 appearances.

FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Rare two-point effort Kurashev put up two assists in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Rangers.

Impact Kurashev continues to add to his career totals, getting at least one point in his second straight game and putting up his first multi-point effort since Dec. 23. His first assist came on Nick Foligno's goal 13:37 into the third period and he followed that up with another helper on the game-tying goal by Jason Dickinson with only 1:02 left that eventually put the game into overtime. The first-line center ended the contest with three shots and a plus-2 rating in 21:34 TOI. Kurashev is on pace to surpass 50 points on the season and he should easily get there while playing in all situations and averaging 18:45 TOI on the season.

FEBRUARY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Matches career high in points Kurashev notched an assist in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to the Wild.

Impact Kurashev set up a Nick Foligno tally in the second period to keep the Blackhawks from getting shut out for a third game in a row. The team has scored three times over the last five contests, with Kurashev earning two assists in that span. That's all of his offense in his last 11 outings. On the year, the 24-year-old has matched his career high with 25 points while adding 81 shots on net, 30 blocked shots and a minus-25 rating through 44 appearances.
