The illness that's ravaging Chicago's dressing room has apparently reached both Arvid Soderblom and Spencer Knight, as both will be unavailable for Friday's game against the Capitals. Chicago will be forced to turn to Commesso between the pipes, who was recalled from Rockford (AHL) earlier in the day. Commesso has just two NHL appearances to his name, though the 23-year-old does have a .909 SV% in 19 AHL games this season. Chicago enters action on Friday at +110 on the money line.

With Arvid Soderblom (illness) uncertain for Friday's game against the Washington Capitals, the Blackhawks have recalled Commesso from Rockford (AHL). If Soderblom is unable to suit up, Commesso will draw into the lineup as Spencer Knight's backup.

With Petr Mrazek being activated from IR, Commesso has been assigned to Rockford (AHL). The 22-year-old Commesso made his first career NHL start during this stint with the Blackhawks, saving 20 of 24 shots (.833 SV%) in a 4-1 loss to the New Jersey Devils. During his time in Rockford (AHL), Commesso has gone 22-22-4 with a .901 SV%.

Commesso was a second-round pick in 2020 and will make his first career start in the NHL on Saturday. The 22-year-old had 73 games at the University of Boston before turning pro in 2023 and has appeared in 48 AHL games since. During his time in Rockford (AHL), Commesso has gone 22-22-4 with a .901 SV%. He draws a terrible matchup in his first career start, as the Blackhawks are +298 underdogs in New Jersey.


Commesso was the second-round pick, 46th overall, of the Blackhawks in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft. The 20-year-old goalie has not played an NHL game yet and has struggled this season with the Rockford IceHogs (AHL), posting a 3.71 GAA and .854 SV% in six games (2-4-0).

Commesso will return to the AHL without making an appearance after serving as Chicago's backup in the absence of Arvid Soderblom (illness). The former second-round draft pick owns a 1-1-0 record and an .854 SV% in two AHL games this season.
