BlackhawksArtyom Levshunov Out Indefinitely With Left-Hand Fracture

The late-season setback leaves his return uncertain with nine games left.

Overview

  • Head coach Jeff Blashill confirmed Sunday that Levshunov fractured his left hand and will have imaging to set a timeline.
  • Levshunov sustained the injury Tuesday against the Islanders and still logged heavy minutes in back-to-back games that followed.
  • He will sit out against the Devils, and the team recalled Kevin Korchinski, who is slated to skate with Ethan Del Mastro on the third pair.
  • With only nine games remaining, local reporting says his season could be over pending test results.
  • The 20-year-old, drafted second overall in 2024, has 2 goals and 22 assists in 68 games with a minus-41 rating while averaging 19:35 on a rebuilding blue line.
