Blackhawks Bits: Reese Johnson to IR; Connolly, Entwistle recalled

With Monday’s game against the Calgary Flames now postponed, the Chicago Blackhawks took to the United Center on Monday for a brief practice.

Before that, though, the team made a few roster moves on Sunday.

Additionally, forward Reese Johnson has been placed on injured reserve.

Team physician Dr. Michael Terry:

Johnson took a hard hit from Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Jake Muzzin during Saturday’s game, skated to the bench, headed to the locker room and did not return to the game.
