Blackhawks AHL prospect update for 2/2: IceHogs slumping in ‘23

It’s that time again when we check in on the Chicago Blackhawks prospects playing in the AHL with the Rockford IceHogs.

The IceHogs hit a rough patch lately, losing seven of nine and falling from second in the AHL’s Central Division to fifth. They had issues scoring recently — generating only 2.1 goals per game in that span — but more importantly, they struggled heavily with keeping goals against were outscored, allowing an average of 4.1 goals per game. Adding insult to injury, four of the losses were against divisional rivals, which is the main reason for their fall down the standings.
