Chicago, Ill.- Chicago Blackhawks General Manager Stan Bowman announced Friday that the National Hockey League club has returned left wing Bryan Bickell to the American Hockey League’s Rockford IceHogs.
Bickell, 23, was held without a point but led the team with five hits in 6:46 of ice time on Thursday against the Detroit Red Wings in Detroit. It was his first appearance with the Blackhawks since the 2007-08 season, when he skated in four games. He is expected to join the IceHogs in Hamilton, Ontario.
The Bowmanville, Ontario, native appeared in 42 games with the IceHogs in 2008-09, recording six goals, eight assists and 60 penalty minutes. He has notched two goals in seven career games with the Blackhawks.

The winger spent four seasons in the Ontario Hockey League with the Ottawa 67’s and Windsor Spitfires, notching 190 points (94g-96a) and 235 penalty minutes in 242 career regular season outings.
