After Notre Dame’s 2023-24 season wrapped up, [autotag]Landon Slaggert[/autotag] made his NHL debut with the Chicago Blackhawks. Over 16 games, he tallied four points, including his first NHL goal. Now, he’s hoping to build upon that.
The Blackhawks are conducting their annual prospect camp in anticipation of a prospect tournament to be held over the weekend. Like the other prospects, Slaggert hopes to make enough of an impact that he can start the season with the parent club.
Despite this, Slaggert hasn’t forgotten about Notre Dame. In fact, he spent most of this past summer training on campus with his now-former teammates. But coming back to Chicago has put things back into perspective for him since he’s no longer at the top of the totem pole.
Only time will tell whether that’s a sign regarding whether Slaggert will break training camp with the Blackhawks. For now though, he’s focused on being the best player he can be as he enters first full season of professional hockey.
