Blackhawks Activate Dickinson, Send Robinson to Rockford

On Friday, the Blackhawks announced a couple roster moves.

Jason Dickinson has been activated off the non-roster list and Buddy Robinson was sent to Rockford.

The Blackhawks acquired Dickinson from Vancouver last week with a second-round pick in 2024 for defenseman Riley Stillman.

Robinson, 31, appeared in the Blackhawks’ season opening loss in Denver. He skated 11:03 and was credited with three hits in the game. He was a healthy scratch in Vegas on Thursday night.
