2024 Fantasy Outlook

Chosen with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2024 NHL Draft, Chicago naturally has big hopes for Levshunov, but will he jump immediately into the top league? At the very least, Levshunov has decided to give it a shot after signing an entry-level contract with Chicago over the summer, ending his tenure with Michigan State University following a freshman campaign in which he recorded nine goals, 35 points and 44 PIM in 38 contests. Even at the age of 18, Levshunov wouldn't look out of place in the NHL given his size and strength. His skill level at both ends of the ice also provides plenty of cause for excitement. Still, Chicago might opt to be careful with his development by having him start in the AHL, especially because the Blackhawks already have a reasonably functional defensive corps going into the campaign. It would not be surprising, though, to see him make his NHL debut this season, even if he doesn't make the squad out of training camp. In the long run, he's got the potential to be a high-end No. 1 defenseman who features heavily on the power play. Read Past Outlooks

Plucks apple Saturday

DChicago Blackhawks

April 13, 2025

Levshunov notched an assist and two hits in Saturday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Jets.

ANALYSIS
Levshunov snapped a five-game point drought with the helper. The 19-year-old defenseman, one of the Blackhawks' top prospects, has gotten shuffled down the lineup a bit with the arrival of Sam Rinzel. Levshunov and Rinzel could end up competing for first-pairing minutes in 2025-26, though they could be risky options in redraft leagues if the Blackhawks' roster doesn't make significant improvements. Through 16 appearances, Levshunov has six assists, 21 shots on net, 16 blocked shots, 13 hits and a minus-15 rating. He is eligible to participate in AHL Rockford's playoff run.
