Carter Hart’s NHL comeback feels dead in the water after bottom-tier save numbers and a lost season

Carter Hart's NHL return is slated for December 1, 2025, following his acquittal in a 2018 sexual assault case involving Hockey Canada's World Junior team. Despite the clearance, his comeback faces uncertainty due to a subpar 2023-24 season and a prolonged absence. The NHL, after its own investigation, set the return timeline, allowing contract signings from October 15, 2025.
