What's newChicago assigned Arvid Soderblom to Rockford after he cleared waivers.

The Chicago Blackhawks sent goaltender Arvid Soderblom to the Rockford IceHogs on Monday, completing a change in goal that began with the recall of Drew Commesso from their AHL affiliate. Soderblom cleared waivers before the assignment.

Soderblom appeared in five games for Chicago this season, posting a .842 save percentage. He previously played 71 regular-season games for the IceHogs from 2021 to 2023.

Commesso had a .890 save percentage and one shutout for Rockford this season before his recall. His first NHL win came on Jan. 10, when he stopped all 36 shots he faced in Nashville.

Chicago placed forward Patrick Kane on injured reserve with an upper-body injury when it recalled Commesso. The placement is retroactive to Nov. 2. Kane has one goal and eight assists in 15 games this season.
