Bertuzzi also didn’t practice yesterday but it was apparently a maintenance day. Let’s see if tonight’s game actually happens.
The Blackhawks are scheduled to conduct settlement negotiations with “John Doe 2,” the former high school player sexually assaulted by Brad Aldrich, on Dec. 20.

Terms of Kyle Beach’s settlement confidential.
I spoke with Chicago attorney Neal Gainsberg, not involved with the case.
Gainsberg said Blackhawks may have had Beach’s lawsuit dismissed, but it would have lingered for years on appeal.
Gainsberg estimates settlement ≈ $1M-$10M.— Rick Westhead (@rwesthead) December 16, 2021
There’s another tweet in that thread about how Beach would have had a tough time in court, but the Hawks got off REAL easy if this is where the settlement fell.
