Brossoit (knee) was placed on season-opening injured reserve Friday, Mario Tirabassi of CHGO Sports reports.
Brossoit will carry a reduced cap hit while on season-opening IR. The 31-year-old is expected to return some time during the Blackhawks' four-game road trip to begin the campaign. Arvid Soderblom is likely to make the initial roster, but he'll likely head to AHL Rockford once Brossoit is activated.
