Marcus Kruger Has Become A Key Piece Of The Blackhawks
On paper, there aren’t too many flaws with this Chicago Blackhawks team, but there is one glaring weakness that has been noticeable for quite a few years.
Of any position, the Hawks lack at center more than anything. That lack of depth in the middle has reared its ugly head with the injury to Jonathan Toews, leaving the Blackhawks with only two real centers on the roster, in...

Penguins Defenseman Deryk Engelland Suspended Three Games For Hit On Marcus Kruger
It was a real blemish on one of the more exciting games to take place in the NHL this season. In the first period of the Blackhawks’ 3-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday, Deryk Engelland left his feet in a check of young Hawks center Marcus Kruger.
Kruger left the game and missed Wednesday’s game with a concussion. John Scott retaliated immediately, taking an...

Marcus Kruger Finding Quiet Success As Second Line Center
Lost in the frenzy of the Blackhawks’ recent success, which is led by their four stars on the forward lines, is the play of Marcus Kruger, who has taken over the second line center duties over the course of the past couple of weeks.
The Hawks initially started with Patrick Kane manning the middle on that second unit, which was a nice fit for a while, but it wasn’t long...

Marcus Kruger Fitting Right In With Blackhawks
Heading into training camp this summer, few expected Marcus Kruger to wind up in Rockford, especially given the Blackhawks’ lack of depth at center.
