With the Central Division All-Star Team being eliminated early in Sunday’s game, there was not much good news for the Chicago Blackhawks fans on the day. That was, until they announced a call-up from Rockford.
The Chicago Blackhawks have recalled defenseman Gustav Forsling from the Rockford IceHogs. The ’Hawks also placed fellow defenseman Michal Rozsival on injured reserve, retroactive to January 25.
Forsling had been send down to Rockford on January 6 along with one-day call-up Spencer Abbott. While Abbott was sent down because the coaching staff was not impressed by this play, Forsling was sent down to get him more consistent playing time.
