2025 Fantasy Outlook
The blue-line youth movement is on in Chicago, and Levshunov, the second overall pick in the 2024 NHL Draft, stands to be a big part of it. The 19-year-old picked up six assists in an 18-game cup-of-coffee last season, and assuming all goes well in the preseason, he should lock down a top-four spot on the right side for this year. The potential is sky-high for the 6-foot-2 defenseman. He had 22 points in 52 games at AHL Rockford last year, pretty good numbers for a teenage defenseman, but how that translates to the NHL level remains to be seen. Based on the ice time and power-play time he is likely to get, Levshunov should be one of the top rookie defenseman options in fantasy, but there is certainly a wide variance in how his first full NHL campaign, if he sticks the whole season, will go.

Overall
Signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Blackhawks in July of 2024.
Out for rest of season
Levshunov (hand) will not play again in 2025-26, according to Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Levshunov sustained a fracture in his left hand against the Islanders last week and played through the injury for a few games. The 20-year-old defenseman will now turn his attention to recovering and getting ready for the 2026-27 campaign, but it currently remains to be seen if Levshunov will undergo surgery to address his hand fracture.

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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be scratched through Olympics
Levshunov is starting a program to reset foundational aspects of his game, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports Friday.
ANALYSIS
Levshunov could miss the Blackhawks' three games prior to the Olympic break to work on his development. It appears the team has opted to go with a middle-ground approach rather than sending Levshunov to the AHL for a stint. That could still be on the table if he doesn't respond well to the scratches, which will be an attempt to get his play in the defensive zone in line with expectations.
