Blackhawks release prospect-heavy roster for split-squad game vs. Bruins

The Blackhawks recalled more than a dozen players from the Rockford IceHogs in the AHL on Friday in advance of the team’s split-squad preseason game against the Bruins on Saturday at TD Garden in Boston. Chicago made the transactions because the NHL team is already in Berlin, Germany, for Sunday’s preseason finale against Eisbären Berlin in the NHL Global Series.
