  • Reichel, filling in for Foligno during his family leave, recorded two goals and an assist for his first multigoal game.
  • Connor Bedard registered three assists, contributing on goals by Reichel, Tyler Bertuzzi and Ryan Greene.
  • Rookie Ryan Greene scored his first NHL goal as the Blackhawks posted their first eight-goal game since March 8, 2022.
