As far as birthday presents so, Bryan Bickell being recalled by the Chicago Blackhawks on Wednesday morning is certainly a weird one for me. There was a large section of the fan base, at various times this season, that thought Bickell would never wear the Indian Head again. But it looks like he’s going to do just that.
The suddenly injury-laden Blackhawks decided to re-add the mercurial winger with just two regular-season games remaining. They managed to stay just under the salary cap while doing so, per General Fanager.
With Bickell back, #Blackhawks estimated to end the season with $141,926 cap space prior to bonus overages.
