We’ve made it through the lightest-loaded position with our Chicago Blackhawks end-of-the-season grades, having covered goaltenders Corey Crawford and Scott Darling in previous posts (both are at the bottom of this post). Michael Leighton will get his glance in a later post containing Blackhawks who were with the team for just a short time this season, but for now, we’ll move on to the Blackhawks forwards.
Let’s go alphabetically, shall we? That means the leadoff hitter is Artem Anisimov, who turned out to be the key piece in the offseason Brandon Saad trade.
