  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Dealing with neck injury

    Martinez (neck) is not practicing Sunday, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    Martinez left Saturday's game after he was struck in the neck by a deflected puck. While his status is in doubt for Monday's game against the Rangers, Martinez was not placed on IR and doesn't appear to be in for an extended absence. Kevin Korchinski was recalled from AHL Rockford on Sunday to provide additional defensive depth.

  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Set to miss time

    Martinez suffered an upper-body injury after taking a deflected puck to the head or neck in the third period of Saturday's game versus the Jets, and he'll miss time, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    This suggests Martinez will at least miss Monday's game versus the Rangers, and it's possible he could miss the Blackhawks' full three-game road trip. Further information wasn't provided about his injury. With Martinez out, look for Louis Crevier to take his spot in the lineup.

  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Garners power-play assist

    Martinez produced a power-play assist, three shots on goal and a minus-4 rating in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.

    This was a case of mixed results for Martinez, as the power-play production was nice, but it came in a game in which the Blackhawks were caved in at 5-on-5. He has two helpers over his last three contests and is seeing time on the second power-play unit. Martinez has three assists, 11 shots on net, a minus-3 rating and 31 blocked shots over 12 appearances this season, but Sunday was the first time Martinez has failed to record a block in 2024-25.

  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Pockets assist in win

    Martinez notched an assist, five blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Stars.

    The helper was Martinez's first point over six games since he returned from a groin injury. The defenseman has added 12 blocked shots in that span, which is his bread-and-butter for fantasy production. For the season, he's at two helpers, eight shots on net and 27 blocks over 10 appearances. Martinez will fill a top-four role regularly, though his limited offensive upside limits his usefulness in fantasy.

  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Game-time call Thursday

    Martinez will be a game-time decision for Thursday's tilt against Seattle, per Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.

    Martinez hasn't played since Oct. 15 due to the injury. He has an assist, one hit and 15 blocks in four appearances with Chicago in 2024-25. If he's ready to return Thursday, he'll likely serve on the top pairing alongside Seth Jones while Nolan Allan, who has dressed in Chicago's last 12 games, might shift the press box.

  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Taken off injured reserve

    Martinez (groin) was activated off injured reserve ahead of Thursday's matchup with Seattle, per the NHL media site.

    Martinez was officially deemed a game-time decision by head coach Luke Richardson, but his removal from injured reserve clears the way for the blueliner to suit up versus the Kraken. Considering the Michigan native hasn't reached the 20-point mark in three consecutive seasons, fantasy players probably shouldn't be expecting a ton of offensive output by Martinez the rest of the way.

  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Might be available for Thursday

    Martinez (groin) practiced Wednesday and might be able to play Thursday, per Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.

    Martinez hasn't been in the lineup since Oct. 15 due to the injury. A determination about his status won't be made until Thursday, but if he is ready to go, then Martinez will likely serve on the top pairing alongside Seth Jones. That would probably result in Nolan Allan being a healthy scratch after remaining in the lineup for 12 straight games.

  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Won't return during road trip

    Martinez (groin) won't return during the Blackhawks' current road trip, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports Wednesday.

    Martinez has been traveling with the Blackhawks during their current five-game road trip, but he's been ruled out for the final three matchups, which will take place Thursday in San Jose, Saturday in Los Angeles and Sunday in Anaheim. His earliest chance to return to action will be Nov. 6 against Detroit, and even if he isn't available against the Red Wings, it wouldn't be surprising to see him back in action sometime in early-to-mid-November.

  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Will travel with team

    Martinez (groin) is getting close to returning and will travel with the Blackhawks on their upcoming five-game road trip, which will begin Saturday in Dallas, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports Tuesday.

    Martinez is expected to miss Tuesday's game versus Vancouver and Friday's clash against Nashville, but beyond that he might be able to draw back into the lineup. He has an assist, a hit and 15 blocks across four appearances this season. Martinez will serve in a top-four role when healthy.

  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Lands on IR

    Martinez was placed on injured reserve Thursday due to a right groin injury.

    Martinez had already been ruled out for Thursday's home opener against the Sharks due to what was initially described as a lower-body injury, and he'll be sidelined for at least a week after being evaluated by the team's training staff. Nolan Allan will take Martinez's place in the third pairing alongside Connor Murphy on Thursday, while Isaak Phillips was recalled from AHL Rockford in a corresponding move.

  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Out of action Thursday

    Martinez (lower body) will miss Thursday's home game versus San Jose, Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN reports.

    Martinez will be evaluated by the Chicago training staff and more should be known Friday. Martinez signed a one-year contract with the Blackhawks in the offseason after playing parts of the last five seasons with the Golden Knights. Martinez has an assist, four shots on goal and 15 blocked shots in four games this season. Nolan Allan is slated to take Martinez's place in the lineup alongside Connor Murphy on the third pairing.

  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Earns helper in loss

    Martinez recorded an assist and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Flames.

    Martinez picked up his first point in four games with the Blackhawks. The defenseman has also done what he does best, racking up 15 blocked shots so far. The 37-year-old accumulated 165 blocks in just 55 regular-season contests with Vegas last season. Martinez should see top-four minutes throughout 2024-25, but his offense is likely to be limited, which in turn reduces his viability in fantasy formats that don't count blocks.

  • Blackhawks' Alec Martinez: Going to Windy City

    Martinez signed a one-year, $4 million contract with Chicago on Monday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Martinez compiled four goals, 17 points, 72 shots on net and 165 blocked shots in 55 regular-season contests with Vegas in 2023-24. He can log over 19 minutes per game but will likely serve as a veteran depth defender for the Blackhawks in 2024-25.

  • Golden Knights' Alec Martinez: Enters lineup, earns assist

    Martinez notched an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Wild.

    Martinez sat out four games, presumably as a healthy scratch. With Alex Pietrangelo (illness) returning, Martinez joined him on the third pairing for Saturday's contest. Martinez has 17 points, 69 shots on net, 157 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 49 contests, but the Golden Knights have many capable options on defense, so he may not be an everyday player down the stretch.

  • Golden Knights' Alec Martinez: Removed from IR

    Martinez (lower body) was activated from injured reserve Sunday, per Jesse Granger of The Athletic.

    Martinez appears to be ready to return to the lineup Sunday versus New Jersey following a four-game absence. He has compiled four goals, 16 points, 67 shots on net and 152 blocked shots in 45 contests this campaign.

  • Golden Knights' Alec Martinez: Undergoes lower-body procedure

    Martinez, who was put on injured reserve Wednesday, has undergone a lower-body procedure that will keep him "out of the lineup short term," GM Kelly McCrimmon told Jesse Granger of The Athletic on Friday.

    Martinez has four goals, 16 points and 152 blocks in 45 appearances this season. He's likely to serve in a bottom-four capacity once he's healthy, but Martinez probably won't have much of a role on the power play.

  • Golden Knights' Alec Martinez: Surfaces on IR

    Martinez (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.

    The specific nature of Martinez's injury is a mystery, but he'll miss Vegas' next two games at a minimum now that he's on IR. With Martinez, who's picked up 16 points and 152 blocks through 45 contests this campaign, on the shelf, look for Ben Hutton or Daniil Miromanov to draw into the lineup versus Vancouver on Thursday.
