A worthwhile question regarding Wirtz family knowledge of the incident...Rocky's son Danny has been in a [senior] leadership role for the past "decade"...when they fired McDonagh in April 2020 Danny took over as interim pres/ceo (and is still CEO; and they hired Jaime Faulkner (female) as president, business ops.

In the interim, Daniel Wirtz, 43, currently Vice President of the Chicago Blackhawks and alternate Governor to the NHL, will serve as the team's President. Danny Wirtz has been an active advisor with the Blackhawks for the past decade, serves as the Chicago Blackhawks Foundation Vice Chairman and is a representative for the team with the United Center Joint Venture.
Perhaps intentionally vague about Danny's role circa 2010? I couldn't find anything, but didn't dig very hard.

Didn't they order the independent investigation into everything? Or maybe that was mutually agreed as part of the proceedings?

Which isn't a defence...but I can see how it would be tough to take decisive action after 11 years.
