NHL Thread Because There Isn't An NHL Thread

The hat trick yesterday by Lucas Raymond was only the third ever hat trick by a teenager for The Red Wings. The first two? None other than Steve Yzerman.
I know it's a small sample size, but Raymond and Seider leading rookies in scoring has me very hopeful for the future and mildly excited about the present. Both of them seem poised and confident on the ice so far this season.

Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Kris Letang tested positive for COVID-19 and remains in protocol, Penguins head coach Mike Sullivan said Monday, according to team reporter Michelle Crechiolo.

The Penguins placed Letang on the COVID-19 list Saturday after he returned a positive result. That result has since been confirmed and caused him to miss Pittsburgh's 7-1 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Penguins goaltender Tristan Jarry started Saturday's contest after producing a false positive test last week.


Pittsburgh improved to 3-0-2 with the victory despite missing Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Bryan Rust because of injuries and Letang and Jeff Carter due to COVID-19 protocol.

Letang, 34, recorded four assists while averaging 26:08 of ice time over the Penguins' first four games of the season.

Three days after the Chicago Blackhawks placed their best player in COVID-19 protocol, their captain joined him on the list.

The Blackhawks placed Jonathan Toews and fellow forward Henrik Borgstrom in the protocol Tuesday, the team announced. Both players missed the day's practice as a result.

Patrick Kane landed on the list Saturday and missed Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Detroit Red Wings, along with forward Jujhar Khaira and defenseman Riley Stillman.


Three Blackhawks coaches have also been in the COVID-19 protocol since the weekend.


Being on the list does not mean a player has tested positive for COVID-19.

Chicago forward Ryan Carpenter and blue-liner Erik Gustafsson entered the protocol Saturday but were removed before Sunday's contest.

The Blackhawks are 0-5-1 and have yet to lead in a game this season. Chicago now holds the record for the longest streak without a lead to start a season since at least 1979-80.

The Blackhawks will host the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday.
 
Blackhawks are supposed to hold a presser momentarily to discuss the findings of the independent investigation into misconduct/abuse. I guess the owners are making it and expect to see some “organizational changes.” I’m sure the usual news outlets should have a recap shortly.
 
BREAKING 🚨

Stan Bowman has stepped down as Chicago Blackhawks general manager, team CEO Danny Wirtz revealed Tuesday.

Bowman vacated his role following the conclusion of an independent investigation into alleged sexual abuse within the organization.

The Blackhawks named Kyle Davidson interim GM. He was previously their assistant general manager of hockey administration.


More to come.
 
Chicago will also settle with the intern and the player who filed suit, as well as pay an additional $2 million fine for the mishandling of the Aldrich matter.
