They have sent several players packing to their junior clubs, and the Rockford IceHogs in the AHL.
Have you noticed who is missing from the list?
Spellacy has survived the latest round of cuts, as the forward is known to be a physical presence on the ice and it seems has caught the eye of Luke Richardson.
Spellacy played 67 games in the OHL, scoring 38 points( 21 G, 17 A), and was seen on the Blackhawks 2nd line against the Detroit Red Wings, with Landon Slaggert and Craig Smith.
The player who modeled his game after Tom Wilson offers, a kind of physicality that the Blackhawks are missing with only Nick Foligno able to offer any kind of muscle on ice, until Pat Maroon's arrival.
2 weeks ago during the Blackhawks prospect camp, he contributed a goal in the team's 4-3 OT loss to the Blues prospects.
Will Spellacy be able to deliver tonight against the Blues once again? This time he'll be facing NHLers, on the ice and in the net.
He'll need more of his physicality and speed, to contribute on both ends of the ice.
Let's hope he can find his scoring touch tonight.
