Blackhawks put Versteeg on long-term injured reserve
The Chicago Blackhawks placed forward Kris Versteeg on long-term injured reserve Sunday. Versteeg broke his left hand blocking a shot in the Winter Classic against the Washington Capitals on Jan. 1.

Chicago Blackhawks forward Kris Versteeg was placed on long-term injured reserve Sunday because of a broken left hand, and forward Dennis Rasmussen was recalled from the Rockford IceHogs of the American Hockey League.
