Wow Blackhawks are atrocious if true. For the record Montador played for the Blackhawks in the 2011-2012 season when concussion protocol was well established.

That has happened and will happen in all sports unless they have independent doctors monitoring with the power to remove players from playing.
The NHL has really left themselves open to lawsuits like this by continuing to allow fighting, and not having a more meaningful concussion protocol with all that is known today. It's pretty shameful that they are behind even the NFL in this area.
