Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

The Blackhawks reassigned Ville Pokka to Rockford on Monday, the team announced.

Pokka came up after both Cody Franson and Jan Rutta were injured recently, but did not play in a game.

Franson and Rutta, who both have upper-body injuries, skated Sunday and both are close to returning Thursday against the Stars.
