| Pos | Role | Name |
| C | 1 | Jonathan Toews  ActiveChicago has dropped three straight games. The silver lining is that they've lost all of those games by just a goal and managed to at least get a consolation point versus Anaheim on Friday. "You can't overreact to it, but you have to keep improving on the little things you do well as a team," Jonathan Toews said. "A lot of the wins we've had, especially on that road trip, were close games. We found ways to win, whether it was protecting a lead or coming back from a goal (down) or two." Chicago will try to bounce back against Florida on Sunday. Meanwhile, they have a four-point lead in the Central Division title race, but have played in four more games than the second place St. Louis Blues. Dec 7 |
| 2 | Andrew Shaw ActiveChicago Blackhawks agitator Andrew Shaw will play against the Florida Panthers on Sunday. He missed two games with an upper-body injury. Shaw has 17 points, a +1- rating, 23 PIM and 57 SOG this season. He's especially useful in hits leagues, as he already has 75 in 2013-14. Dec 8 |
| 3 | Michal Handzus ActiveMichal Handzus (illness) is healthy enough to play Friday. Handzus was sidelined for two games. He has a goal and four points in 13 contests this season. Dec 6 |
| 4 | Marcus Kruger ActiveMarcus Kruger has made significant improvements on his faceoff work this year. He has won 169 of the 309 draws he's taken for a 54.7 winning percentage, which is up from the 46.2 success rate he had last season. Kruger has done his job as part of Chicago's fourth line with Brandon Bollig and Ben Smith. He is also a key member of the team's penalty kill. In 28 games, he has contributed 12 points. Dec 2 |
| LW | 1 | Patrick Sharp ActivePatrick Sharp tallied two goals in Tuesday's 6-2 thumping of Dallas. He has five points, including three goals, in his last two games. Sharp has 29 points and a plus-11 rating in 33 contests this year. Dec 11 |
| 2 | Brandon Saad ActiveBrandon Saad notched a pair of goals in a 6-2 victory against the Dallas Stars on Tuesday night. The 21-year-old forward has four goals and one assist in his past four games. Saad had a strong showing during the lockout-shortened season with 27 points in 46 outings and he's been even better this year with 23 points in 33 appearances. Dec 11 |
| 3 | Bryan Bickell  I.L.Bryan Bickell (lower body) has been placed on injured reserve. He is retroactive to Nov. 19. Bickell is making some progress toward returning from his lower-body injury. The transaction was made because the Blackhawks needed the roster spot to bring up goaltender Kent Simpson. Dec 9 |
| 4 | Brandon Bollig ActiveBrandon Bollig was the surprise fantasy star of Chicago's 5-1 win over Winnipeg during a matinee contest on Saturday. He recorded an impressive stat line of a game-winning goal, an assist, three shots, two penalty minutes, two hits and a plus-3 rating versus the Jets. Marcus Kruger had two assists in the match, while defenseman Nick Leddy notched a goal and a helper. Patrick Sharp, Ben Smith and Niklas Hjalmarsson had the Hawks' other tallies in the win. Nov 2 |
| RW | 1 | Patrick Kane ActiveChicago Blackhawks star Patrick Kane collected three points in his team's 6-2 win against the Dallas Stars on Tuesday. He now has 40 points on the season as he has 12 in his six-game hot streak. That includes one goal and five assists in the last two contests. He's jumped a level from great to truly elite this season. Dec 11 |
| 2 | Marian Hossa ActiveMarian Hossa generated a goal and an assist against Florida on Sunday. He has three goals and three assists in his last five contests. Hossa has been very productive this season with 24 points in 27 outings. Dec 9 |
| 3 | Kris Versteeg ActiveKris Versteeg had a goal and an assist Friday night, but it was not enough to lift the Hawks over the Ducks. Versteeg now has 14 points on the year, seven with Chicago and seven from when he was a Panther. The speedy winger though has played just 12 games with the Hawks, whereas it took him 18 games to reach seven points with Florida. Dec 6 |
| 4 | Ben Smith ActiveBen Smith scored a goal against the Anaheim Ducks in Friday's 3-2 shootout loss. Smith now has four goals and 10 points in 24 contests. He might have some fantasy value in a couple years, but for now he isn't worth owning in standard leagues. Dec 7 |
| 5 | Jeremy Morin ActiveThe Chicago Blackhawks have summoned Jeremy Morin. Morin has six goals and 12 points in 13 AHL games this season. So far, he's averaged just 8:15 minutes per game with Chicago in the 2013-14 campaign and he's not likely to log substantially more playing time in this stint. Dec 4 |
| D | 1 | Duncan Keith ActiveDuncan Keith has named the NHL's third star of the week. He collected six assists in four games for the Blackhawks. Keith has earned at least one helper in seven straight games and he leads all NHL defensemen with 23 assists this season. Dec 2 |
| 2 | Brent Seabrook ActiveBrent Seabrook earned a goal and a helper Sunday night versus Florida. He potted his second power-play goal of the season in the contest. Seabrook has 19 points and a plus-14 rating in 32 games. Dec 9 |
| 3 | Niklas Hjalmarsson ActiveNiklas Hjalmarsson scored a goal in Saturday's 5-2 win over Phoenix. Hjalmarsson has four points in his last five games. He's likely to shatter his career-high of 17 points after recording 13 points in his first 28 contests this season. Dec 1 |
| 4 | Johnny Oduya ActiveJohnny Oduya (leg) is available for Wednesday's game. Oduya was hurt while blocking a shot during Monday's game against Edmonton. He has two goals and seven points in 25 contests this season. Nov 27 |
| 5 | Nick Leddy ActiveNick Leddy registered seven shots and scored in Chicago's 4-3 loss to Dallas on Tuesday night. The Hawks blueliner has three goals and 13 points in 29 games this campaign. Leddy is on pace for another season of just over 35 points in 2013-14, which could warrant him some attention in deeper leagues. Dec 4 |
| 6 | Michal Rozsival ActiveMichal Rozsival had some dental work done after taking a puck to the face Sunday night. Coach Joel Quenneville described the defenseman's status as "not bad" on Tuesday. "We'll get him on the ice (Wednesday), hopefully he'll be fine," Quenneville added. Nov 13 |
| 7 | Sheldon Brookbank ActiveSheldon Brookbank got to play Tuesday night because Michal Handzus missed the game because of an illness. Brookbank skates mostly as a defenseman, but he can play as a forward too. He received just 7:49 of ice time against Dallas and earned an assist in Chicago's 4-3 loss. Dec 4 |
| 8 | Mike Kostka ActiveMike Kostka scored his second goal of the season and he added an assist on Tuesday. He opened the scoring in Chicago's 6-2 victory over Dallas. Kostka missed 22 games with a right foot injury and got back into the lineup for the first time since Oct. 19 on Tuesday night. He has three points in three contests this campaign. Dec 11 |
| G | 1 | Corey Crawford  SidelinedCorey Crawford (lower body) is expected to be sidelined for about three weeks. Crawford left Sunday's game because of the ailment. He has a 2.47 GAA and .907 save percentage in 27 contests this season. With backup netminder Nikolai Khabibulin sidelined too, it seems probable that Antti Raanta will get a fair amount of playing time for the remainder of the month. Dec 10 |
| 2 | Nikolai Khabibulin I.L.Nikolai Khabibulin is still working his way back from a lower-body injury. "He's working out like crazy," coach Joel Quenneville said. "He wants to get healthy. I'm sure he's progressing but I don't think there's a clear sign of exactly when he'll be on the ice." Khabibulin was injured back on Nov. 16 against Nashville. Dec 9 |
| 3 | Antti Raanta ActiveChicago coach Joel Quenneville is confident with handing Antti Raanta the team's starting goalie duties while Corey Crawford is injured. "He has handled it well (when) he has been in the net," Quenneville said. "Games have been on the line and he has been solid for us. Just moving forward, you like his approach, you like his competitiveness and he's a battler. It will be a good test for him as well." He made 27 stops in a 6-2 win over Dallas on Tuesday and it wouldn't be a shocker if he started again on Wednesday versus Philadelphia. Dec 11 |
| 4 | Kent Simpson ActiveKent Simpson has been recalled by Chicago. Simpson hasn't posted impressive statistics in the minors this campaign with Rockford. He has a 6-7-0 record, with a 3.38 goals-against average and a .900 save percentage in 15 AHL contests. He will back up Antti Raanta while Corey Crawford is sidelined. Dec 9 |
