Chicago Blackhawks forward Taylor Hall expressed surprise at being made a healthy scratch for Saturday's 4-1 loss against the Vancouver Canucks.

Hall pointed out coach Luke Richardson had not indicated that was a possibility leading up to the game.

"I was surprised. It was unexpected, from the standpoint that I didn't know I was even close to being in that spot," Hall said. "If there were some conversations in the days leading up about my game, or if I was constantly being shown video, that would be one thing. So I was a bit surprised."
