The Chicago Blackhawks bolstered their ranks Monday by calling up six players from the minors.

Forwards Jeremy Morin and Brandon Pirri, defencemen Joe Lavin and Ryan Stanton and goalie Carter Hutton were all called up from Rockford of the AHL. Forward Brandon Saad was called up from Saginaw of the OHL.

It's unlikely any of the six will dress against the Phoenix Coyotes unless the 'Hawks get bit by the injury bug.

 

Would Seattle be a good city for the NHL to relocate to?   Yes, it'd be a great market.   Maybe, who knows.   No, they should go to Quebec instead. Results | Story
