Macbook Pro 2012 here. I only experienced one issue which is somehow similar and caused by resuming from sleep when the webgl tab is still the active one. Then Chrome and everything else from MacOS will hang for 1 minute until Chrome figures out that WebGL crashed. But I do not have to hard reset for recovery. Just wait a minute....
Just happened to me as well a few seconds ago (I actually had even 3 instances open in the background and no sleep/hibernation involved). But again just waiting for about 1 min finally led to a responsive system again.

I always close the tab before closing the lid.
For me it happened when I have it in a background tab. If I switch away for a while and then click back on the tab it will freeze.
