Blackhawks.com has you covered on the first voluntary day back, including a Video: Players arrive for Phase 2 voluntary workouts, as well as a timelapse of ice re-installation at Fifth Third Arena below.

Per NHL guidelines, all workouts during Phase 2 at team training facilities are on a voluntary basis and limited to small groups of six players at a time with a limited number of team staff.

This week, subject to meeting all requirements set forth in the NHL's Phase 2 Protocol and by the Department of Public Health Guidelines, Blackhawks players have been granted the option of accessing Fifth Third Arena for these voluntary workouts. A slow phase-in is taking place this week with the health and safety of our players being the top priority.
