Former Chicago Blackhawks players Nick Boynton and Daniel Carcillo have filed a lawsuit against the NHL alleging it is a “league of denial.”
Chicago-based law firm Corboy & Demetrio filed the lawsuit on the former players behalf at a U.S. District Court in Minnesota, reports WGN TV.
Boynton played 605 career games in nine NHL seasons with the Boston Bruins and Chicago. He won the 2010 Stanley Cup with the Hawks.
Carcillo skated in 474 NHL games also in nine seasons with the Phoenix Coyotes, Philadelphia Flyers, Blackhawks, New York Rangers and Los Angeles Kings.
