Guttman signed a one-year, two-way contract extension with the Blackhawks on Thursday, according to Charlie Roumeliotis of NBC Sports Chicago.
Guttman played 27 games at the NHL level in 2023-24, scoring four times while adding four assists over that stretch. He was sent down to AHL Rockford at the end of January and finished the season in the minors, scoring 16 goals and 40 points in 39 AHL games. He should see some NHL action in 2024-25, but he'll likely once again spend most of his time in the minors.

Blackhawks' Cole Guttman: Assigned to Rockford
Rotowire
Guttman was reassigned to AHL Rockford on Sunday.
Guttman had been a healthy scratch in Chicago's last four contests after tallying four goals and eight points in 27 games this season. The 24-year-old Guttman will look to stay fresh in the AHL, with the Blackhawks out of action through the All-Star break.
Guttman logged an assist in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Jets.
Guttman ended his five-game point drought by helping out on a Connor Murphy tally in the second period. The assist was Guttman's fourth point over his last eight contests. The 24-year-old has found steady playing time amid the Blackhawks' injury woes, filling a middle-six role. He has seven points, 40 shots on net and a minus-14 rating through 23 appearances this season, so he can likely remain on the waiver wire in most fantasy formats.

Rotowire
Guttman recorded a power-play assist, two shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Sunday's 8-1 loss to the Stars.
Guttman has picked up three points over his last two games. The 24-year-old may be in line for more responsibility going forward after Tyler Johnson (undisclosed) left Sunday's game with an injury. Guttman has been alright so far, racking up six points (two on the power play) with 26 shots on net and a minus-10 rating across 17 appearances this season.

Blackhawks' Cole Guttman: Provides assist in win
Rotowire
Guttman recorded an assist and four shots on goal in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Blues.
Guttman saw just 12:02 of ice time despite being listed on the second line. He helped out on Anthony Beauvillier's tally early in the first period. This was Guttman's first point at the NHL level since he scored a goal versus the Penguins on Opening Night. The 24-year-old has two points, 15 shots on net and a minus-2 rating through nine appearances, and his spot in the lineup probably shouldn't be considered secure.
