The Chicago Blackhawks gave Frank Nazar a massive contract extension despite him playing just 56 NHL games.
The seven-year, $46.13 million deal will keep the 21-year-old promising center in a Blackhawks sweater through the 2032-33 season. This is either making a safe bet or jumping the gun, depending on how you look at it.
He closed out the 2024-25 season strong with five goals and four assists in April. He finished the season with a three-game goal-scoring streak. He is also a former first-round pick with tremendous potential.
At the same time, he has just 27 career points and is an undersized center.
