The Chicago Blackhawks announced today that they have recalled forward Ryan Greene from the Rockford IceHogs. Additionally the IceHogs have released defenseman Ashton Cumby from his PTO. 

Greene, 21, made his NHL debut last spring with the Blackhawks on Apr. 14, 2025 against the Montreal Canadiens. The 57th overall selection in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft ended his collegiate career last spring with Boston University, posting 38 points (13g, 25a) in 40 games.

Cumby was selected by the Chicago Blackhawks in the 6th round of the 2025 NHL Entry Draft. The 20-year-old defenseman appeared in both preseason games for the IceHogs last week. 

The six-foot-five defenseman will be assigned to the Seattle Thunderbirds in the WHL. Cumby skated in 68 games with the Thunderbirds last season, collecting 13 points.
