Chicago Blackhawks pledge to release findings of investigation into sexual assault allegations against former assistant coach

The Chicago Blackhawks are pledging to release the findings of an independent investigation into allegations that a then-assistant coach sexually assaulted two players in 2010.

President of hockey operations and general manager Stan Bowman confirmed Monday that CEO Danny Wirtz informed Blackhawks employees in a memo that the team will share the results of former federal prosecutor Reid Schar's investigation and implement changes to address any shortcomings.

"I think Danny was very clear on the direction the organization's taking," Bowman said during a video call with reporters. "Danny said it pretty clearly there that this independent review is going to be something that we'll share results with our employees, our partners, our fans and whatnot.
