Commesso was reassigned to AHL Rockford on Thursday, Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio reports.
EDGE Analysis
Commesso spent a week and a half with the NHL club since Petr Mrazek (groin) was sidelined. However, Commesso made just two appearances (one start) during his time with Chicago, posting an 0-1-0 record, 3.38 GAA and .846 save percentage. He'll head back to the minors, where he should see more consistent playing time, after Mrazek was activated from injured reserve Thursday.

Commesso made 20 saves Saturday in a 4-1 loss to the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
Commesso had a 1-0 lead heading into the third period in his first NHL start. However, the Devils overwhelmed the Hawks in the final frame by scoring three goals over a 2:06 span. Commesso could see additional time during Petr Mrazek's (groin) absence if Arvid Soderblom continues to struggle, but it's hard to trust any netminder on the Blackhawks right now.

Commesso will patrol the visiting crease against New Jersey on Saturday, according to Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.
EDGE Analysis
Commesso stopped both shots he faced in his NHL debut Thursday versus the Islanders after Arvid Soderblom got the hook. Commesso joined the Blackhawks on Sunday as Petr Mrazek went on injured reserve with a groin injury. The 22-year-old Commesso has a 4-6-0 record with a 3.34 GAA and an .879 save percentage in 10 AHL games this season. He has a tough matchup for his first NHL start because the Devils have 3.31 goals per game in 2024-25.

Commesso turned aside both the shots he faced after replacing Arvid Soderblom midway through the third period of Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
It was the first NHL action of Commesso's career, and the 22-year-old netminder nearly got rewarded with a win when Chicago almost rallied from a 5-1 deficit. Petr Mrazek (groin) isn't expected back for at least another week, and with the team playing back-to-back games this weekend, Commesso seems likely to get his first NHL start either Saturday in New Jersey or Sunday back at home in a rematch with the Isles.

Commesso was recalled from AHL Rockford on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
This could be a longer stint in the NHL for Commesso as Petr Mrazek (groin) was placed on IR in a subsequent move. The 22-year-old Commesso has yet to appear in an NHL game -- he's 4-6-0 with an .879 save percentage in the minors this year. He figures to back up Arvid Soderblom on Monday in a road matchup with the Rangers.

Commesso was reassigned to AHL Rockford on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Commesso served as backup to Arvid Soderblom for Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Ducks while Petr Mrazek was away from the team for personal reasons. The 22-year-old Commesso has yet to make his NHL debut, but he appears to be the top option for a recall whenever the Blackhawks need additional help in the crease.

Commesso was elevated to the NHL roster by the Blackhawks on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Commesso's recall would seem to indicate that either Petr Mrazek or Arvid Soderblom won't be available against the Ducks on Tuesday, and the team will need Commesso to serve as the backup. While fantasy players will have to wait to see who is starting for the Hawks, it almost certainly won't be Commesso, so he shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of short-term fantasy value.

Commesso was returned to AHL Rockford on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Commesso was called up by the Blackhawks on Friday but will return to the minors following a brief stint in the NHL, which could signal that Arvid Soderblom (illness) is close to full health. Commesso hasn't yet made his NHL debut but could rejoin Chicago again at some point to provide additional depth.

Commesso was called up from AHL Rockford on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Commesso's recall is an interesting one, as Petr Mrazek or Arvid Soderblom may be dealing with some sort of issue, though the team has not revealed anything. The 22-year-old Commesso is considered a potential goalie-of-the-future for the Blackhawks, but he has yet to make his NHL debut, and it's unclear if he will during this stint with the big club.

Commesso was assigned to AHL Rockford on Sunday, Charlie Roumeliotis of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
Commesso wasn't particularly effective during his lone preseason start, as he turned aside 35 of 42 shots in a 7-2 loss to Minnesota. He made 38 regular-season appearances for Rockford last year and will return to the minors now that the preseason has concluded. Since Laurent Brossoit (knee) will begin the season on injured reserve, Commesso could be called up if Petr Mrazek or Arvid Soderblom deal with injuries at some point.
