Duncan Keith faces an in-person hearing with the NHL following a Tuesday high-sticking incident that occurred during Chicago's game against the Wild.
Keith will have in-person hearing with the NHL following Tuesday's high-sticking incident against Charlie Coyle of the Wild.
Analysis:
That his hearing is in person suggests Keith could be facing a potential suspension of more than five games, which obviously clouds the blueliner's status for the remainder of the Hawks' regular-season slate. The team has five games to go on that front, beginning with Friday's game against the Jets.
