After years of continuity within the Blackhawks’ core, the heavy turnover in recent years has made the list of longest-tenured Hawks look strange.
Veteran defenseman Connor Murphy, in his seventh season in Chicago, is the longest-tenured player by far. He’s the only guy left who predates the pandemic. After him are three forwards who debuted during the abridged 2021 no-fans season: Philipp Kurashev (who debuted Jan. 15 that season), Reese Johnson (Jan. 31) and MacKenzie Entwistle (March 23).
