Blackhawks’ Taylor Hall is expected to miss the rest of the season with a right knee injury
Associated PressCHICAGO — Blackhawks forward Taylor Hall will have right knee surgery, likely sidelining the 2018 NHL MVP for the rest of the season. 1 overall pick in the 2010 NHL draft, was acquired in a trade with Boston right before Chicago took Connor Bedard with top pick in this year’s draft. “Then he tried to get through it and in practice he just caught a rut and it finalized him.” Hall has two goals and two assists in 10 games this season. “Someone that loves to play so much, and every game so impactful and such a good hockey player, but such a good person and means so much to our group.. We know he’s still going to be around and of course a big part of the team.” Blackhawks forward Corey Perry was a healthy scratch for the loss to the Blue Jackets, and Richardson declined to talk about the situation.
