As journalist Carl Tardif from local newspaper Le Soleil reports, Kurashev will leave the Hawks' training camp "in the next few hours" to rejoin his QMJHL-team, the Remparts de Québec, for their season opener on Saturday.

Prior to that, according to the official game preview, the youngster is projected to make his debut with the Blackhawks in this Tuesday night's preseason clash on the road against the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Kurashev was drafted in the 4th round as 120th overall by the Chicago Blackhawks in this year's NHL Entry Draft (still unsigned) and already took part in their development camp in mid-July.

In the past two years, the product of SC Bern has been playing with the Remparts de Québec from North America's Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, recording 42 goals and 80 assists in 134 games.
