Subban will patrol the crease during Tuesday's road game versus Nashville, Mark Lazerus of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Subban hasn't played since he allowed five goals on 33 shots in a 5-1 Opening Night loss to the Lightning on Jan. 13. The 27-year-old backstop will attempt to pick up his first win of the season in a road matchup with a Predators team that's only averaging 2.40 goals per game this campaign, 25th in the NHL.

Subban stopped 28 of 33 shots in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
Subban wasn't to blame for the loss, as the Blackhawks were dominated by the defending champs in every phase of the game. It was 3-0 Tampa Bay after the first period, and the Lightning finished with a 33-23 edge in shots. It remains to be seen how Chicago splits up playing time in net between Subban and Collin Delia, but wins will be hard to come by for either netminder on a rebuilding, defensively challenged team.

Subban will guard the crease on the road versus the Lightning on Wednesday, Charlie Roumeliotis of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old backstop was in a battle with Collin Delia for the Blackhawks' starting job during training camp, but it appears as though Subban has emerged victorious, at least for now. The Toronto native compiled a 9-7-3 record while posting a sub-par 3.17 GAA and .890 save percentage in 21 NHL appearances last season, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him struggle against Tampa Bay's formidable offense.

Subban re-signed with Chicago on Friday to a two-year, $1.7 million deal.
EDGE Analysis
Subban had a mostly disastrous showing last year with Vegas before being traded to the Blackhawks, posting a 3.18 GAA and .890 save percentage through 20 appearances. With longtime No. 1 netminder Corey Crawford departing in free agency, Subban technically stands as the incumbent top option at the moment between the pipes in the Windy City ahead of Collin Delia. However, Chicago is expected to sign another goalie this offseason to assume the No. 1 spot ahead of Subban.

The Blackhawks are hopeful they'll be able to re-sign Subban, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
General manager Stan Bowman just announced that the Blackhawks won't be re-signing Corey Crawford, so if Subban ends up back in Chicago, he'll enter training camp in a battle with Collin Delia and Kevin Lankinen for the starting gig. The 26-year-old backstop compiled a 9-7-3 record while posting a 3.17 GAA and .890 save percentage in 21 appearances in 2019-20.

Subban did not receive a qualifying offer from the Blackhawks, so he'll hit the market as an unrestricted free agent Friday, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Subban was a sub-par backup in 2019-20, registering a 3.17 GAA and .890 save percentage in 21 appearances split between Vegas and Chicago, and the Blackhawks likely want to roll with homegrown talent Collin Delia as their No. 2 netminder next season, so this move makes sense. Still, Subban shouldn't have too much trouble finding a new team in free agency, although he may need to settle for a two-way deal.

The Blackhawks acquired Subban from the Golden Knights along with a second-round pick and Slava Demin in exchange for Robin Lehner on Monday, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The goaltender swap should afford Subban more playing time as the No. 2 behind Corey Crawford instead of being stuck behind workhorse Marc-Andre Fleury. There's the potential for Subban to carve out a role as the goalie of the future in Chicago, but he'll need a quick improvement on his numbers in Vegas. The 26-year-old played 20 games with the Golden Knights this year, recording an .890 save percentage and 9-7-3 record.

Subban gave up five goals on 30 shots in a 6-5 overtime win over the Ducks on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
As usual with Subban, it wasn't a pretty effort -- he's given up five goals in three of his last five starts. The 26-year-old improved to 9-7-3 with a 3.18 GAA and an .890 save percentage through 20 appearances this year. The Golden Knights will continue to use Subban sparingly, which limits his already low fantasy value.

Subban will patrol the crease for Sunday's contest in Anaheim, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Subban will make his first start since Feb. 8 where he allowed five goals on 24 shots but still managed to escape with a victory. He owns an unsightly 3.09 GAA and .893 save percentage in 19 appearances this season. Subban allowed four goals in a loss the Ducks earlier this season. He'll look to get some revenge against the second-lowest scoring offense in the NHL.

Subban surrendered five goals on 24 shots in Thursday's 6-5 overtime win over the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Subban made his first start in nearly two weeks, but he wasn't sharp in the chaotic game. The 26-year-old improved to 8-7-3 while his GAA inflated to 3.09 and his save percentage dipped to .893 in 19 appearances this year. Expect Marc-Andre Fleury to get the nod for Saturday's game against the Islanders.
