A Wilmette kid is staying in Chicago for six more years. Alex Vlasic's emergence as a Blackhawks cornerstone was cemented today with his new contract. Story: chicago.suntimes.com/blackhawks/202…
Blackhawks have signed Alex Vlasic to a 6-year contract extension with a $4.6 mil salary-cap hit, source confirms. Have to imagine both sides are very happy with that. Vlasic, the Wilmette kid, will be in Chicago long-term.
The IceHogs will host the Grand Rapids Griffins in Game 1 of the Central Division Semifinals Saturday night at the BMO Center! Follow the link to see the full schedule and take advantage of 30% off seats for Saturday night. Flash Sale ends Monday, 4/22 at 11:59pm. 🏆 See full…
Season 5 on the @Suntimes Blackhawks beat: ✅ Thanks to all 21,032 of you for following along! I'll keep writing one story per week until June, when my coverage will ramp up again ahead of the draft.
New Blackhawks notebook: 🔹 Connor Bedard's summer plans 🔹 Alex Vlasic looking for a long-term contract 🔹 Davidson to take "deep look at" goalie situation 🔹 Development camp off-ice again Story: chicago.suntimes.com/blackhawks/202…
Next season, for the first time in Kyle Davidson's GM tenure, there will be some expectations for the Blackhawks to improve. "I don’t know how many points or standing slots that is, but we can’t finish second-last in the league." Story: chicago.suntimes.com/blackhawks/202…
Connor Bedard said he'll spend most of the summer back home in Vancouver. The biggest thing he'll work on training-wise is his speed.
Seth Jones: "I loved the attendance. I didn't expect the attendance to hold up like it did, with what we were putting on the ice, but it did. We loved every minute playing here in front of the fans and that's something we should not take for granted."
Luke Richardson says he’ll emphasize shorter yet harder practices next season. He thinks that might be why they tended have slow starts in games, easing into them.
Alex Vlasic said the Blackhawks' win in Toronto in October was a turning point for his career. "[That] was like, 'I'm here, and I'm pretty good.' I just remember leaving that game and I was like, 'Damn!'"
Sounds like Alex Vlasic will be looking for a long-term contract with the Blackhawks this summer. “I want to be here as long as possible.”
Foligno: “An improved Connor Bedard is a scary thought.”
Connor Murphy said his tweak in Vegas wasn’t exactly a reinjury, but it will affect his summer training plans. He’s thankful it’s the offseason now and he won’t have to worry about a specific timeline for feeling healthy again.
Tyler Johnson on his Blackhawks tenure: “I’m obviously thankful for being here, I’ve met a lot of good people, but it wasn’t exactly like I envisioned or wanted.” He’s a UFA this summer and it sounds like signing with a playoff contender will be his #1 priority.
Taylor Hall was able to participate in the Blackhawks' last morning skate of the season yesterday, less than five months after ACL surgery. He's come a long way. "To be where I am now, I’m quite proud of myself." Story: chicago.suntimes.com/blackhawks/202…

Next, after another win, a 6-game losing streak. And now, after win No. 3? Damn straight, a 7-game losing streak.
Alex Vlasic was incredible defensively this year on a bad Hawks team — while playing some of the toughest minutes in the league. While $4.6M is fair for what he is now, a deal that covers his entire prime under a rising cap could make this one of the league's best contracts.
Keep pursuing hockey, Alex 🥹

So … not literally
Ice is in J.J. McCarthy's blood. No, literally. Did you know the college football national champion and soon-to-be NFL Draft pick’s first love was hockey? @adamjahns on how it translated to the gridiron ⤵️
So I started recording right after the #Canes tying goal to save a sense of the deafening noise in the building and just kept the video going and got an even better surprise nine seconds later. Chaos was caused. #CauseChaos
When you think it’s a rerun but it’s a new episode with a plot twist.
This getting mad about the way opponents score empty net goals is the dumbest development in the NHL in a long time
Final shot attempts were 110 Hurricanes, 28 Islanders.
"Yeah, I know we gave up five unanswered goals while cowardly retreating into a terrified shell for a period and a half, but we took some cheap shots after they scored an empty-netter too hard so MESSAGE SENT ARGLE BARGLE."
Year 2 with the @SeattleKraken in the books 🦑 Blessed to do what I love for the best organization in the entire @NHL and to the great #SeaKraken fans … thank you for your continued and unwavering support!
WE LOVE YOU BEN
