He is the first player in NHL history to be born in the state of South Carolina.

Contents

Early life

Hartman was born on September 20, 1994, on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. [1] He was raised by Craig and Kim Hartman in West Dundee, Illinois, where he became a fan of the Chicago Blackhawks of the National Hockey League (NHL). He attended William Fremd High School in Palatine, Illinois, another suburb of Chicago. [2] He began ice skating at the age of three and played minor ice hockey with a number of Chicago-area teams, most notably the Chicago Mission, with whom he won several state championships. [3] With the Mission, Hartman became friends with fellow future NHL players Nick Schmaltz and Vinnie Hinostroza. [4]

When he was 15, Hartman joined the USA Hockey National Team Development Program (NTDP), and his family moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan. [5] His father built an ice skating rink in the backyard of their Michigan house, and Hartman used the rink to develop his shooting technique. [6] During the 2011–12 NTDP season, Hartman was second on the team with 38 points in 55 games. [7]

Playing career

Junior

Hartman joined the Plymouth Whalers of the Ontario Hockey League for the 2012–13 OHL season and was invited to take part in the CHL Top Prospects Game. [8] He was then selected to play with the gold-medal-winning American squad at the IIHF World U20 Championship. [9] Hartman was rated as a top prospect, fulfilling the expectation to be a first-round selection at the 2013 NHL entry draft. [10] [11]

Professional

Chicago Blackhawks

On November 18, 2013, the Chicago Blackhawks signed Hartman to a three-year entry-level contract. [12] Hartman made his NHL debut on February 13, 2015, against the New Jersey Devils. [13] Hartman started the 2016–17 NHL season with the Blackhawks. The team sought to harness Hartman's physical play style after trading away Andrew Shaw in the offseason. [14] He scored the first goal of his career against Jake Allen of the St. Louis Blues during the NHL's season opener on October 12, 2016. [15] Hartman scored his first career hat trick against the Nashville Predators on January 8, 2017. [16] Hartman finished the season with 19 goals and 12 assists. [17]

During the 2017–18 season, Hartman recorded eight goals and 17 assists in 57 appearances for the Blackhawks. He rotated through the Blackhawks lineup, but primarily skated as a bottom-six forward. [18]

Nashville Predators

On February 26, 2018, Hartman along with a fifth-round pick in 2018 NHL entry draft was traded to the Nashville Predators in exchange for Victor Ejdsell, first-round and fourth-round picks in 2018. [19] He appeared in 21 regular season games for Nashville, where he tallied three goals and three assists. [20] The NHL suspended Hartman for one game during the first round of the 2018 Stanley Cup playoffs after he delivered an illegal check to Carl Soderberg. [21]

Philadelphia Flyers

In the 2018–19 season, at the NHL trade deadline on February 25, 2019, the Predators traded Hartman, along with a conditional fourth-round pick in 2020, to the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for Wayne Simmonds. [22] He added two goals and six points through 19 games with the Flyers as the club missed the playoffs.

Minnesota Wild

On June 24, 2019, Hartman was again involved in a trade, dealt by the Flyers to the Dallas Stars in exchange for Tyler Pitlick. [23] The following day, Hartman was not tendered a qualifying offer from the Stars, enabling him to become a free agent on July 1. [24]

On the opening day of free agency, Hartman was signed to a two-year, $3.8 million contract with the Minnesota Wild on July 1, 2019. [25]

On April 22, 2021, Hartman signed a three-year, $5.1 million contract extension with the Wild. [26]

On October 7, 2023, Hartman signed a three-year, $12 million contract extension with the Wild. [27]

Hartman sparked controversy in late December 2023 after being accused of intentionally attempting to injure a player in a back-to-back series against the Winnipeg Jets. [28] On December 30, Wild star Kirill Kaprizov was injured from a pair of cross-checks from Jets defenceman Brenden Dillon. [29] The next night, 1:51 into the first period of a rematch against the Jets, Jets forward Cole Perfetti claims that Hartman told Perfetti that he was going to intentionally high-stick him as retribution for Kaprizov's injury, despite Perfetti not being involved in the play which injured Kaprivoz. [29] On the ensuing faceoff, Hartman hit Perfetti in the face with a high-stick. [29] Although the play was not called a penalty by the referees, Perfertti was wearing a microphone when the exchange occurred which picked up audio of the interaction. [28] Perfetti was not injured on the play but required stiches from the high-stick. [30] On January 2, 2024, the NHL fined Hartman $4,427.08 for high-sticking Perfetti, the maximum allowable under the league's collective bargaining agreement for an infraction which does not involve an injury or game misconduct penalty resulting from a play. [30] [31] After three days of silence following the breaking of the story, Hartman publicly denied that he had intentionally high-sticked Perfetti and instead claimed that Perfetti had baited Hartman into claiming responsibility for the incident during the match; audio of the exchange was not released after the Wild organization and National Hockey League Players' Association objected to its release. [30] [32]

[33] His younger brother Tanner played hockey for the Chicago Fury U15 team and the New Hampshire Jr. Monarchs of the NCDC and currently plays for Hobart College. [34] He has a white German Shepherd named Riley. [35]
