The Chicago Blackhawks [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/chicago-blackhawks] have added a new goalie prospect to their system. The Blackhawks have announced that they have signed goaltender Stanislav Berezhnoy to a two-year, entry-level contract. At the NHL level, he will carry a $975,000 cap hit. Berezhnoy spent most of this past season in the VHL, where he thrived. In 27 games split between Omskie Krylia and SKA-Neva St. Petersburg, he had a 12-10-2 record, a 2.50 goals-against average, and a .928 save percentage. He also made one KHL appearance with SKA St. Petersburg in 2024-25, where he saved nine out of 11 shots. Overall, with the Blackhawks still rebuilding, there is no harm in them taking a shot on a very intriguing goalie prospect in Berezhnoy. The 6-foot-4 goalie showed promise this past season in the VHL, and he could be a solid addition to the Blackhawks' prospect pool if he continues to trend in the right direction with his development.
