It is no secret that the Chicago Blackhawks have many exciting prospects in their system. Because of this, three of them made Craig Button's latest top 50 NHL-affiliated prospects list: Anton Frondell, Roman Kantserov, and Vaclav Nestrasil.
Frondell was given the No. 2 spot by Button, and it is understandable when noting that he has the potential to become a legitimate star. The 2025 third-overall pick has played in 43 games this season with Djurgardens IF of the SHL, where he has recorded 20 goals, 28 points, and a plus-15 rating.
Kantserov was given the No. 10 spot on Button's rankings. The 2023 second-round pick has had a fantastic season in the KHL with Metallurg Magnitogorsk, as he has recorded 34 goals and 62 points in 62 games.
As for Nestrasil, the 2025 first-round pick has 12 goals and 28 points in 32 games this campaign with UMass-Amherst. With this, the 6-foot-5 forward was given the No. 26 spot on Button's rankings.
