Chicago Blackhawks forward Andrew Ladd is back in the lineup for Game 4 of the Stanley Cup finals.

Ladd made his debut in the championship series Friday night against the Philadelphia Flyers after missing three games with an undisclosed injury he sustained in Game 4 of the Western Conference finals.

He has two goals and an assist in 16 games this postseason. Ladd was called for interference just 36 seconds into the game.

The Blackhawks also swapped out defensemen, inserting Nick Boynton into the lineup for the first time this postseason. He replaced Jordan Hendry.

Adam Burish sat out in place of Ladd for the Blackhawks, who led the series 2-1.
