Mrazek last played October 21st vs. Detroit and left after allowing three goals on 18 shots (.833 SV%) due to injury. He struggled prior to the injury, posting a 1-1-0 record with a .873 SV% and 3.75 GAA. He faces off against the Los Angeles Kings who are on a two-game winning streak and didn't allow a goal their last time out, beating Minnesota 1-0.
Mrazek has not played since October 21st when he left in a game vs. the Red Wings due to a groin strain. He struggled prior to the injury, posting a 1-1-0 record with a 3.76 GAA and .873 SV%. Alex Stalock was placed on IR Monday so news of Mrazek's return comes at just the right time for the injured Blackhawks.
Mrazek stopped 24 of 26 shots (.923 SV%) for his first victory of the season in a 5-2 win over the San Jose Sharks his last time out. It has been up and down in two starts for Mrazek, as he holds a .885 SV% and 3.50 GAA through the opening part of the season. The Blackhawks will host the Red Wings Friday who is still yet to lose in regulation after three games (2-0-1) and are averaging 4.0 GF/GP early on.

Mrazek will get his second start of the early season Saturday after getting lit up for five goals on 35 shots Wednesday vs Colorado. The 11-year veteran will be hoping a much easier matchup against the winless 0-3-0 Sharks will lead to better results in his second start of 2022-23.
Mrazek draws a terrible matchup in his inaugural game with the Blackhawks, matching up against previous Stanley Cup Champions, the Colorado Avalanche and their high-flying offence. Mrazek joins Chicago from Toronto after a terrible 2021-22 season which saw him waived after posting a .888 SV% and 3.34 GAA on one of the league's top teams.
Mrazek suffered his third groin injury of the season and is expected to miss a minimum of six weeks. Michael Hutchinson was recalled on Thursday to serve as Erik Kallgren's backup vs. the Jets. Jack Campbell could be back by the weekend to replace Mrazek on a more permanent basis. If his injury finishes Mrazek's season, he wraps it up with a 12-6-0 record, 3.34 GAA and .888 SV%.
Mrazek allowed one goal on four shots before leaving Tuesday's game in Boston with a groin injury. Erik Kallgren took over for Mrazek and will serve as the Maple Leafs' No.1 until Jack Campbell or Mrazek are back.
Mrazek allowed five goals on 31 shots in the Maple Leafs loss to the Sabres last Wednesday. Jack Campbell struggled again on Saturday, so the Maple Leafs will come back to Mrazek on Monday. In his last six appearances, Mrazek is 3-3-0 with an .873 SV%.
