Blackhawks' Luke Johnson: Returned to bus league

Johnson wasn't very effective during his brief stay with the big club, firing one shot on goal while averaging just 8:50 of ice time in two contests. The 24-year-old pivot will return to a prominent role with Rockford, where he's notched four goals and seven points in 10 games this campaign.

Chicago placed Marcus Kruger (concussion) on injured reserve in a corresponding move, so Johnson will likely round out the team's depth up front until Kruger is cleared to return. The 24-year-old Johnson has notched four goals and seven points in 10 AHL appearances this campaign.

The 24-year-old pivot has suited up for 13 NHL games this year, notching one assist and an ugly minus-7 rating. Johnson's development will be better off in minors, where he can play nightly in a top-six role.

In a corresponding move, the Blackhawks sent goalie Anton Forsberg down to the minors. Johnson is not a skater that will captivate a given fantasy owner considering he's a bottom-six filler who's averaged only 8:55 of ice time through his first three NHL games.

This move was made in order for the Blackhawks to activate No. 1 goaltender Corey Crawford (concussion) from injured reserve. Perhaps Johnson will return to the big stage in the event of injuries to the parent club's forward group.
