How many fu k ups does Stan get before he is finally given the ax?

Hires a junior coach with very little experience.

Signs Seabrook for 7 years at 7 million even though his skills and foot speed were already starting to become an issue.

From being one of the fastest team in the NHL we flipped flopped to become one of the slowest team in the last 4 years....it seems all the good teams made the adjustment by drafting and trading for players with good skating speed. Stan apparently didn't get the message that the NHL was moving in that direction

I think SB is pushing 90? He doesn't do much these days.

He’s 86 but was doing a book tour late last year. It’s not that I think he should be behind the bench but more of a consultant and mentor JC. Meet with him every few weeks, go over strategy etc..

He also orchestrated at minimum 2 Stanley cup championships, several good trades and good prospects. There are GM’s out there who are long tenured and have no championships but endure nonetheless.

Also, we don’t know how thick the drama is with McD. If the Blackhawks make a change it’s with President Hockey operations and bring in a guy with a real hockey pedigree and not a marketing pedigree. We are passed that point.

Let the new hockey guy make changes. It’ll probably take a year but by then we’ll be on the right track.

I been bringing up the need to get a true VP of Hockey Operation who will make the decisions on all hockey operation and only answers to Rockey. Period !

Sorry, but it is time for the ship to sail with Stan with Stan and his Dad onboard.. . Bon Voyage!

Hey guys! Fun fact you may find amusing in a gallows humor kind of way - stopped by to talk to my ticket rep last night. She told me that season ticket renewals are going out next week. Looked at her and wryly said “you’re timing there is epic!” She responded with the idea they are toying with of having Bowman call season ticket holders and I wanted to just lose it right there and then. Instead I just told her that while some might view it as a good thing, others wouldn’t. Sigh. So out of touch. I told her that we would rather have a clear strategy to get back to contention. Going to tell her today (when not at a table surrounded by a bunch of fans in a loud UC hallway) About what a lack of confidence there is that Bowman is the guy to to get it done.

What are they thinking with having Bowman call ticket holders? That’s probably not good for Bowman or the person getting the call.

If this is indeed true, I think it confirms what's been suggested on here for years. That McEgo has his nose in hockey ops as well. You know something like that has to be his brain child, or at the very least, someone took it to him and he actually thinks it might be a good idea???!! Maybe we'll all get to see if Rocky actually has a set by seasons end in a month and a half.

been a very full week for me...have not been able to check in to the hawk buzz toy shop...

about 10 days ago I suggested the hawks would keep both lehner and craw but poor play could change things...

well we got the poor play and horsepoop february and something has to give now at the TDL...as powers said the players gave bowman every reason to waive the white flag and place out the for sale sign. unless he has a wink/wink agreement with lehner...ole lard ass has to go...

as does gus, matta, and who knows maybe keith says I have had enough of this and waives...

who knows maybe a few other surprises...

i think shaw stays on LTIR and never plays again...

ADB being signed a year before he needed to be was this year’s evidence of McInput. All about the headlines all the time.

What would he get paid if they waited until after this season?

ALWAYS wait.

Well, didn't he wait on Bickell, and see what happened? The thing to remember, it is Rocky's money, it is not our concern.

- Beaver-Warrior


He waited too long to pull the trigger on that deal. Stan could have had Kubalik for a 6th if he made the trade at a different time.

i do tire of the trash stanbow narrative here...last summer his trades and signs were very good and paper and were looking pretty good on ice until shaw and dehahn were lost for good...despite their injury vulnerability those were good moves with out much given up...

now things are different...this summer should look different; all the hawks brass jabbering about accountability...how about some

Do you really believe Blowman is going to call five, six or seven thousand people? And then what would he even say? Do you have any idea how many hours would be needed to make those phone calls? Come on man! Don’t you recognize bullpoop when you see it?

Didn’t need the good press then, and honestly if he didn’t have MS they would have had their banger 1LW in place and he would have been worth every penny of the waiting premium.

The issue isn’t so much the value of the deal - more about what the motivation was to sign an RFA a year earlier than needed.

In ADBs case - all about a headline.

ADB scored 41 goals last season. Maybe the team thought he would have even better numbers going into his contract year and decided to lock him up before his demands became even bigger?

If Stan calls me, I’m going to tell him to growl like a dragon if he wants me to renew my season tix. It’s gonna get weird...

ADB is fine....just having a tough shooting percentage year and all goal scorers go through that

He'd be at 25g if he was at his avg around 15% instead of the 8% hes at. Hes still getting tons of chances, it just happens. I'd bank more on him being a 30-35g guy than a 15-20g going forward

Better late than never.

Fun with fake trades!

Can't wait to hear everyone complain about these suggestions. Please note, these are just for fun and if you absolutely hate some of these, feel free to offer a counter suggestion.

What??! Like they couldn't record it and make automated calls to the numbers you suggest in a matter of a few hours?? Maybe you're the one spewing bullpoop??
