Frank Nazar suffers a significant injury, losing two front teeth after taking a puck to the face during the Chicago Blackhawks' 5-3 defeat against the St. Louis Blues. This incident marks another setback for the 22-year-old, who recently returned from a broken jaw sustained in December. Nazar plans to suit up against the Buffalo Sabres, sporting a protective cage. "Got it pretty good, but could be a lot worse," he reflects. Nazar, a first-round pick in the 2022 draft, boasts 15 goals and 26 assists over 64 games this season. He signed a lucrative $46.2 million, seven-year extension with Chicago in August. Defenseman Ethan Del Mastro is also slated to return after missing Saturday's game due to injury. The stakes rise as the Blackhawks navigate this challenging season.
