Former Chicago Blackhawks forward Taylor Hall broke his silence on the lack of playing time with Connor Bedard, delivering a bold statement aimed at interim coach Anders Sorensen.

Hall broke down the timeline of the blockbuster trade from his perspective Thursday. He claimed he's "definitely a better player than the amount I was playing" during his final weeks in Chicago.

The Chicago Blackhawks went more than 17 minutes before recording their first shot on goal — after giving up another short-handed goal to the Carolina Hurricanes’ Seth Jarvis.

Earlier in the week, the Blackhawks traded Taylor Hall to the Hurricanes, and Connor Bedard is now reacting to the move.

Chicago also retained 50% of Rantanen's salary in the deal.

RALEIGH, N.C. — In the weeks leading up to his trade to Carolina, Taylor Hall repeatedly said he wanted to stay in Chicago, that he wanted to be a part of what the Blackhawks were building, that he wanted to settle down in one city in the twilight of his peripatetic career.

Marc-Andre Fleury made 19 saves for his first shutout of the season in likely his final game in Montreal, helping the Minnesota Wild beat the Canadiens 4-0 on Thursday night. The 40-year-old Fleury, from Sorel-Tracy about 50 miles northeast of Montreal,

The Carolina Hurricanes defeated the Chicago Blackhawks, 3-2 on Thursday night at the Lenovo Center. The win gave the Canes seven straight games in which they earned at least one point. The bug is hitting Carolina as Sebastian Aho and Taylor Hall were too ill to play.
