Connolly was recalled from AHL Rockford on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The 29-year-old and one-time 22-goal-scorer (2018-19) has yet to set foot on NHL ice this season. Connolly has been reasonably productive with the IceHogs to the tune of 11 points in 16 games, so he should provide a nice bit of veteran depth with the Blackhawks if he's indeed pressed into action.
