Chicago Blackhawks Connor Murphy's seasons fate decided

The Chicago Blackhawks have made room for the return of Connor Murphy by assigning defenseman Wyatt Kaiser to AHL Rockford. T

his move signals Murphy's imminent return from injury, potentially ahead of Wednesday's game against the Blues.

Murphy, who has been sidelined with osteitis pubis for the past two and a half months, aims to bolster the Blackhawks' defensive lineup for the remainder of the season.

This is the best-case-scenario news for Murphy and the Hawks as many expected him to be out for the remainder of the season, now the 31-year old veteran can step into actual games before heading into the off-season.
