Petr Mrazek Activated by Blackhawks for Return

The Chicago Blackhawks have activated goaltender Petr Mrazek from injured reserve after he missed six games due to a left groin strain. Mrazek, who has a record of 7-11-1 this season with a 2.83 goals-against average and .906 save percentage, could return to the lineup tonight against the Seattle Kraken. In his absence, 22-year-old Drew Commesso has been reassigned to the Rockford IceHogs after making two appearances, including a loss in his first NHL start. The Blackhawks, currently tied for last in the Central Division, hope Mrazek's return will bolster their performance as they face the Kraken at home. Mrazek's activation comes as the team seeks to improve its standing in the league, sitting 14 points out of a Wild Card spot.
