Blackhawks winger Andre Burakovsky suffered an undisclosed injury last night against Seattle and was quickly ruled out for tonight’s game against Buffalo as well. However, it doesn’t sound like he’ll be out for too much longer. Head coach Jeff Blashill indicated to CHGO Sports pregame (Twitter link) that the veteran is listed as day-to-day. Acquired from the Kraken over the offseason, the 30-year-old has rebounded quite well with his new team. He has seven goals and eight assists in 18 appearances so far, his best point-per-game mark since 2020-21 when he was with Colorado. Landon Slaggert returned to the lineup tonight to take Burakovsky’s spot in the lineup.
