Blackhawks Surge Continues: Team Defies Expectations with Impressive Run

The Chicago Blackhawks have been one of the NHL's hottest teams over the past month, defying early-season expectations with an impressive run of success. As of November 17th, 2025, the Blackhawks have gone 9-3-3 in their last 15 games, the 3rd-best record in the league during that time period.

At the forefront of the Blackhawks' resurgence is rookie forward Artyom Levshunov, who has recorded 8 assists in his last 9 games. Levshunov's energetic and creative play has sparked the team, with his celebrations after setting up goals drawing rave reviews from his teammates.

The Blackhawks' recent surge has coincided with the team's centennial celebration at the United Center. The franchise honored its storied past, with former stars like Corey Crawford and Duncan Keith receiving warm ovations from the passionate Chicago crowd. The return of beloved broadcaster Pat Foley as an ambassador has also been a welcome sight for Blackhawks fans.

While it remains to be seen if the Blackhawks can sustain their current level of play, the team has undoubtedly recaptured the excitement and energy that had been missing in recent seasons. With Levshunov leading the charge and the franchise celebrating its rich history, the Blackhawks are poised to make a push for the playoffs in the coming months.
