The Chicago Blackhawks franchise and fanbase woke up to quite a shocking announcement on Thursday morning, as Brent Seabrook has announced his retirement from professional hockey due to injuries.
When you think of the Chicago Blackhawks blueline over the last 15 years, there have been two defensemen that will go down in franchise history. One is the legendary Duncan Keith, who can still be found anchoring Chicago’s blueline to the present day. The other? Brent Seabrook.
It was announced this morning that Brent Seabrook has announced that his playing career has come to an end based upon the numerous injuries he has endured over the past couple of seasons.
