Artyom Levshunov showcased his potential as a rookie defenseman for the Chicago Blackhawks despite a tough 6-2 loss to the Vancouver Canucks. He earned his first NHL point, an assist on Wyatt Kaiser’s goal, but struggled defensively, contributing to two goals against. Interim coach Anders Sorensen provided mixed feedback, giving Levshunov a team-high ice time of 22:39. Overall, the Blackhawks fell victim to their ongoing issues, including turnovers and poor defensive reads, marking their 10th consecutive loss to the Canucks. Connor Bedard continued to deal with penalties, accumulating 28 minutes in five games, while Arvid Soderblom struggled in net, further illustrating the Blackhawks' challenges.
