Duncan Keith joins Blackhawks for workouts leading up to training camp

Duncan Keith returned to workouts with the Blackhawks for the first time in Phase 2 on Friday at Fifth Third Arena.

The 36-year-old defenseman had been working out in British Columbia before arriving in Chicago.

Keith had 27 points (three goals, 24 assists) and averaged 24:23 minutes of ice time in 61 games before the season was paused March 12 due to to concerns surrounding the coronavirus. His 189 consecutive game streak ended Nov. 30 when he missed nine gaames with a groin injury.

He’s 12th and last Chicago defensemen to report for Phase 2, joining Nicolas Beaudin, Adam Boqvist, Lucas Carlsson, Calvin de Haan, Dennis Gilbert, Slater Koekkoek, Olli Maatta, Connor Murphy, Alec Regula, Brent Seabrook and Nick Seeler.
