The Blackhawks made only a few minor tweaks to the young players in their organization since Second City Hockey unveiled its 2019-20 midseason Top 25 Under 25 ranking series.
Chicago traded winger Dylan Sikura to the Golden Knights for a more experience player in winger Brandon Pirri, and sent defenseman Dennis Gilbert to the Avalanche in the Brandon Saad trade. Both Gilbert (No. 18) and Sikura (No. 11) saw playing time with the Blackhawks, but players with a higher skillset and potential have entered the organization and surpassed them.
