Blackhawks Wrapped Up in Controversy Once Again
The Chicago Blackhawks are once again in the middle of a controversy. Just weeks after the Connor Bedard draft diverted the public's attention from the Kyle Beach scandal, they find themselves right back in it.
Blackhawks Involved in Another Controversy
Last week, some of the newest members of the Chicago Blackhawks held interviews.
During the press conferences, they stood behind a podium featuring the team's black, red, and white stripes.
However, some people were offended by this because it resembled the design used by the Third Reich.
You can see for yourself:
Rectifying the Situation
The Blackhawks addressed the issue by posting pictures of the players zoomed in, removing the podium from view.
While it appears to be an honest mistake by the communications team, it still angered many people.
