Hardman was reassigned to AHL Rockford on Wednesday, Charlie Roumeliotis of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hardman has appeared in eight games this season in which he recorded 25 hits, seven shots and six blocks but failed to register a point. Hardman's demotion to the minors would seem to indicate that Jujhar Khaira (illness) will be available against the Blues on Thursday.
