Dickinson will play in his first game since October 30th, and just his ninth game of the season on Sunday. The third-line centre will replace an unnamed forward in the lineup as the Blackhawks continue to roll with 11 forwards and seven defensemen.

Benson has missed the lsat 10 games with a lower-body injury, but will play Sunday vs. the Hurricanes. It's unclear where Benson will slot into the lineup, but he spent most of the season on the top line with Tage Thompson, so he could bump Josh Doan to the third line. Benson has yet to score this season but has picked up eight assists in eight games.

Chatfield last played on November 6th due to a concussion, but will return to the lineup on Friday against the Winnipeg Jets. The 29-year-old stay-at-home defensemen is in his sixth season in Carolina and has three assists, eight PIMs and 20 SOG in 13 GP this season.
