Gary Bettman and the NHL issued a statement today announcing the reinstatement of former Blackhawks general manager Stan Bowman and head coach Joel Quenneville to the league.

Certainly, both individuals have been absent from the league for several years following the exposure of the Kyle Beach sexual assault case by investigative journalist Rick Westhead. The investigation resulted in their removal from the league, and neither has been associated with an NHL team since. However, it now seems that this situation is set to change.
#NHL announces that former #Blackhawks executives Stan Bowman, Joel Quenneville and Al MacIsaac have been reinstated and are now eligible to seek employment in the league again.

Can be hired after July 10.
Since there isn't enough going on, the NHL just reinstated Stan Bowman, Al MacIsaac and Joel Quenneville, who were banished after the @NHLBlackhawks
sexual assualt scandal.
The fan reaction to this news has been overwhelmingly negative. Few are pleased, with many expressing frustration over the league's perceived lack of accountability. The Blackhawks' minimal repercussions for their mishandling of the assault case add to the discontent, as the individuals responsible for the cover-up are now being reintegrated into the league.
it's embarrassing how bad this league is at literally everything and even more embarrassing that they get away with it.
What an absolute disgrace. League once again proving they care nothing about the game initiatives they try to champion. Next time you see them post something about "equality" just remember they've done nothing but ensure the hockey man stays in power.
This development is undoubtedly significant for the league. It appears the announcement was strategically timed to coincide with the flurry of news about players signing with new teams, possibly to mitigate attention. We'll have to wait and see how this unfolds. There have already been rumors linking Stan Bowman to the Edmonton Oilers. Tune in on the 10th to find out if these rumors materialize.
