Before the news came out that Adam Burish would miss about six months of the season with a torn ACL, the Blackhawks made seven cuts in the third round of roster trimming in training camp. After one game played, two top prospects were sent back to their junior hockey teams. Defenseman Shawn Lalonde will go back to the Belleville Bulls (OHL) and forward Kyle Beach will return to the Lethbridge Hurricanes (WHL).
The other five cut from the training camp roster will head to Rockford to finish out their training camp. They were forwards Bryan Bickell, Mark Cullen and Rob Klinkhammer and defensemen Daryl Boyle – a non-roster invite – and Brian Connelly.
The number of players stands at twenty-eight with Burish and Marian Hossa heading to the injury reserve.
