The Blackhawks have assigned veteran defenseman Jason Garrison to the Rockford IceHogs in the AHL after he cleared waivers Tuesday.
Garrison was part of a four-player deal Sunday that saw Chicago send defensemen Brandon Manning and Robin Norell to Edmonton for forward Drake Caggiula and Garrison.
The 34-year-old Garrison signed with the Oilers on a league-minimum contract after appearing in training camp on a player-tryout contact. In 17 games this season, he has one goal.
Chicago is the fourth team for Garrison in the last three seasons and sixth in his career.
