Artem Anisimov - UBI
This isn't good for Chicago seeing as his line with Kane and Schmaltz has been their main producer this season.

The Chicago Blackhawks placed center Artem Anisimov on injured reserve, the team announced Friday. Defenseman Cody Franson has been activated from IR to replace him on the roster.
The loss of Anisimov blows a hole in the Hawks? already-thin depth chart up the middle. The team recently recalled rookie David Kampf from the AHL to make his NHL debut after an underwhelming stint from fellow call-up Vinnie Hinostroza. Now without Anisimov, the Hawks essentially have one reliable top-nine center in Jonathan Toews.
Anisimov suffered an upper-body injury in the Blackhawks? 5-2 loss to the Canucks on Friday night. He joins starting goaltender Corey Crawford on IR, which puts Chicago in a precarious position as it tries to make up ground in the Central Division standings. Without those two, this is a far less impressive team.
The Hawks don?t have any time to waste with the game against the Oilers Friday night, so we?ll have to see how Joel Quenneville realigns his lineup without Anisimov. Could Nick Schmaltz return to center? Maybe give Hinostroza a shot at center between Schmaltz and Patrick Kane? At this point, none of those options sounds particularly exciting, but the team doesn?t have many alternatives.

Re: Artem Anisimov - UBI

Schmaltz played at center earlier and he's been better at wing.Originally Posted by newper114
I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.
Re: Artem Anisimov - UBI
Schmaltz started the season at centre but had a hard time winning a face-off. He has played much better as a winger.

Re: Artem Anisimov - UBI
Ya they are definitely thin down the middle. Hard to say how many games hes going to miss too.

Re: Artem Anisimov - UBI
Agreed. This line had great chemistry in the preseason. For as many line combinations as Q will try, I don't know why he doesn't give this line a try. He'll probably put Kamf or Hartman at #2 to try to out think everyone.
