Good morning Chicago Blackhawks fans! The Chicago Blackhawks made a surprising roster move yesterday when they called up Brandon Mashinter from Rockford. Mashinter was named the Rockford Ice Hogs Captain earlier this year and is off to a pretty good start with the Chicago Blackhawks AHL affiliation, but I don’t think anyone expected to see Mashinter in Chicago anytime soon.
Ryan Garbutt has been fighting a virus and hasn’t seen the ice in 4 to 5 days, so the Hawks called up another forward for Thursday nights game against the New Jersey Devils.
