The 2023–24 Chicago Blackhawks season was the 98th season (97th season of play) for the National Hockey League (NHL) franchise that was established on September 25, 1926.[1] The Blackhawks were led by second-year head coach Luke Richardson.[2] This was the first season since 2006–07 that Jonathan Toews was not on the roster as his contract expired at the end of the previous season.[3] In addition, it was the first full-season since that same year without Patrick Kane after he was traded to the New York Rangers in February 2023.[4]
On March 9, 2024, the Blackhawks became the first team to be eliminated from playoff contention following a 4–1 loss to the Washington Capitals and a 5–3 win by the Vegas Golden Knights against the Detroit Red Wings.[5] Two days later, Connor Bedard scored his 20th goal of the season, making him as the first Blackhawks player to hit the 20-goal mark at 18 years old since Eddie Olczyk did it in the 1984–85 season.
