About this episode
On this episode of the Blackhawks Breakaway Podcast, Pat Boyle and Charlie Roumeliotis break down the Blackhawks being hit hard by the injury bug, with Frank Nazar sidelined for four weeks in addition to Connor Bedard already being out. They discuss the impact of their absences, who could step into expanded roles, and why Nick Lardis could be one of those players. The guys also dive into the seven total challenges over the last three games, attempt to clarify what constitutes as goaltender interference, and offer a solution for how the NHL could clean it up. To wrap things up, Pat and Charlie highlight the three Blackhawks prospects set to represent their countries at the 2026 World Juniors and share their Blackhawks-themed Christmas gifts.
