With the recent new of what is reported as a sure thing, the signing of the big three to contract extensions, I missed the news that the Rockford IceHogs recalled three players from the Blackhawks’ ECHL affiliate, the Toledo Walleye. Goaltender Alec Richards, defenseman J.C. Sawyer and non-roster forward Maxime Tanguay made the trip.

Richards and Sawyer are worthy of the call-up due to their performances in the ECHL. Richards’ boasts a 4-1-2 record as a Walleye this season, and a 2.75 goals against average. Sawyer was second on the team in total points with sixteen (five goals, eleven assists) in twelve games.
