Anders Sorensen's fate with the Chicago Blackhawks has been confirmed by Kyle Davidson

Blackhawks GM Kyle Davidson on his evaluation of interim head coach Anders Sorensen to this point: "He's done a nice job so far. We've seen a little bit of highs and lows throughout his time with us so far at the NHL level. I think some of the habits and some of the mentality we have as a team has improved in my opinion. There's some things we still need to clean up, especially when we're playing with leads is trying to stay on that front foot and trying to keep pushing, but the fact we've been pushing and been able to generate offense earlier in the game and putting the team in a position to have to hold leads is a good thing, and holding leads later into games and getting results has been nice lately. I've really liked that. But there's still a mentality that continues to need to change and play right through the 60 minutes on the front foot rather than sitting back and trying to play a little more conservatively. But as a high level assessment, I think he's been really effective so far."

Plan is for Sorensen to finish this season, and a process to be conducted at that time
