The Chicago Blackhawks placed forward Landon Slaggert and forward Dominic Toninato on waivers Sunday in an effort to assign them to Rockford. Following the moves, the Blackhawks are set to bring 13 forwards, eight defensemen, and two goaltenders to Las Vegas for Tuesday's regular-season opener.
Head coach Jeff Blashill stated that competition for regular roster spots and roles will continue through October due to a shortened preseason. Forwards Andrew Mangiapane, Teuvo Teravainen, and Jordan Greenway remain among the players competing for position, while Slaggert and rookie AJ Spellacy serve as potential call-up options.
