The trade of Ryan Hartman to the Nashville Predators before the deadline Monday wasn’t a total surprise, but it still seems to have caught Chicago Blackhawks players off guard. One of the more interesting reactions came from captain Jonathan Toews, who expressed confusion regarding why the deal was even made.
@JonathanToews on Hartman (1 of 2):
"He's so physical, he scores goals … he can do a little bit of everything. That's the only thing I can really comment on is how much he'll be missed, and what type of player and a guy he is.
