Let’s go over some news and notes:

- The NHL has historically not been great at advocating for racial justice, but it appears that is slowly changing for the better. [Hockey Wilderness]

- Brennan Menell won’t be playing for Iowa next season. Instead, he’ll be playing across the pond in Russia. [Hockey Wilderness]

- The Wild made a few additions to their coaching staff! Welcome aboard, Frederic Chabot and Brett McLean. [Hockey Wilderness]

Off the trail...

- Former Red Wings and Capitals defenseman Mike Green is set to retire after 15 NHL seasons. [Japers’ Rink]

- Goes without saying, but it’s incidents like Tallon’s that make fighting for equality so important.
