Ben Smith Sent Down to Rockford

The Hawks assigned Forward Ben Smith to Rockford of the American Hockey League on Monday.  Smith scored 3 goals in 7 playoff games for the Hawks in 2011 including the overtime game winner in Game 6.  Smith was looking to make the Hawks roster but suffered a concussion against the Detroit Red Wings and has been out since.  Smith returned to practice last week but with the Hawks one over at the forward position with Dave Bolland and Viktor Stalberg healthy, Smith appears to be the odd man out for the time being.
