Blackhawks' Artyom Levshunov: Won't be ready to start year
Levshunov (foot) was placed on season-opening injured reserve on Friday, Mario Tirabassi of CHGO Sports reports.
Levshunov has been skating during camp, but as expected, he won't be active by the start of the season. The 18-year-old defenseman is expected to play with AHL Rockford for most of 2024-25, and that's likely where he'll be assigned once he's healthy.

Blackhawks' Artyom Levshunov: Progressing from foot injury
Levshunov (right foot) skated Friday in a non-contact jersey, according to Charlie Roumeliotis of NBC Sports Chicago.
It's the fourth day in a row that Levshunov has been on the ice in some capacity, a great sign for the highly-touted prospect. The 18-year-old almost certainly will not make Chicago's Opening Night roster, but he'll have every chance to develop his game with AHL Rockford when healthy. Levshunov produced 35 points and a plus-27 rating with Michigan State University in 2023-24.

Blackhawks' Artyom Levshunov: Set to miss preseason
Levshunov (foot) is not expected to play in any preseason games, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports Friday.
Levshunov was already likely headed for a stint with AHL Rockford to open the 2024-25 campaign but now almost certainly won't make the Opening Night roster. Still, the 18-year-old blueliner's injury is not expected to have a long-term impact, meaning he probably will make his NHL debut at some point during the upcoming season.

Blackhawks' Artyom Levshunov: Suffers foot injury
Levshunov sustained a foot injury that will sideline him for the Blackhawks' prospect tournament, Mark Lazerus of The Athletic reports Wednesday.
Levshunov's injury could impact his ability to make the 23-man roster for Opening Night versus Utah on Oct. 8. With Michigan State last year, the 18-year-old blueliner garnered nine goals and 26 assists in 38 outings. Even if Levshunov makes the team out of training camp, he may still need time in the minors during parts of the 2024-25 campaign.
