Mrazek surrendered four goals on 24 shots in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to Utah. Utah also scored one empty-net goal.
Mrazek's preseason struggles carried over to Opening Night, as Utah scored the first three goals of the game and never looked back. The 32-year-old netminder also gave up a goal to Lawson Crouse in the final minute after Utah's empty-netter. Mrazek is set to see a starting role to begin 2024-25, but the Blackhawks' defense doesn't inspire much confidence, which could make it tough for him to replicate his 3.04 GAA and .907 save percentage from last season.
