Mangiapane (lower body) is likely to be available to play Friday, but he probably won't be in the lineup, CHGO Blackhawks reports.

Mangiapane hasn't played since Sept. 29 and is still on injured reserve. Based on the most recent report, he might not have a regular spot in the lineup when he's healthy. Mangiapane had eight goals and 16 points in 62 regular-season appearances with Edmonton and Chicago in 2025-26.
