The Blackhawks Are Holding Two Players Out of Tonight's Lineup..
The Chicago Blackhawks have been on a long 8 game losing streak, thankfully snapping it the other night against the San Jose Sharks on Pat Foley's last game broadcasting with the NHL as well as the Chicago Blackhawks.
With the playoffs being out of the picture for quite some time, why not bring some youth into play to fulfill Kyle Davidson's "full" rebuild plan. Instead the Blackhawks have been playing their declining players and giving them top line minutes, while Chicago's future sits on the sidelines and watches with no chance at development.
With less than two weeks left in the NHL season, the Chicago Blackhawks have finally put their foot down and have sat some of the declining veterans to give some of our youth a chance, such as: Alex Regula, Lukas Reichel, Alex Vlasic and more.
Tonight Derek King is choosing to sit two players, rightfully so..
