ITS HAPPENING ITS HAPPENING

So no Q heritage night?

(too soon?)

From Laz: Stan Bowman has 'stepped aside" per Danny Wirtz. He's out as GM.

They must have a GM in mind. The new GM very likely will need time to assess everything, so to the faint of heart don’t be surprised if JC isn’t launched right away. Hopefully the scouting staff is reassessed. But most importantly a new direction will undoubtedly be undertaken. Maybe he’ll bring back meathead hockey?

With all the diversity stuff going ya think a female may be considered to be GM? If so can you imagine the melt down some will undoubtedly have?

Kyle Davidson is the Blackhawks interim general manager. No executives who were part of this failure will be part of the organization.

So MacIssac out too

Failure?

Gotta think Bowman is the last remaining vestige of that time frame.
Besides a couple players.

No, he gone

He and MacIssac have already been removed from the team's website

Now, we'll see if StanBo's last laugh or gift was that Jones contract

Well, this is the start of more change it looks like. New GM can mean a lot of things changing in the next year or two or more. For better or worse, we will see how deep this will go.

Davidson was around then as an intern. I bet he is just a caretaker. Wonder if Pierre McGuire has faxed his resume already?

I’m going to beat a couple guys here to the punch. I miss Stan Bowman

And so it begins…

Well this shuts up everybody who said the Hawks would sweep this under the rug, the investigation was a sham, all Rocky cares about is the brand.

I miss when you weren't around

No other way to spin it....sad day to be a fan.

Hawks admitted blame, have instructed their legal department to try and settle with ex player and HS kid....Bowman and McIsaac are out. Likely fall out in Winnipeg and Florida next.....

Disgusting....gave them a benefit of the doubt and when this report is out it's going to be a very tough read.

and goes without saying....horrible for those who were affected.

When Stan said be patient, did he mean until he left?

No, he gone

This falls directly on McD’s head.

There may not be fallout in Winnipeg and Florida, simply because of the fact those guys weren't the ones running the show.

it does and they cleaned house to anyone who was in that room in May of 2010.

Doesn’t matter. They were in the meetings.

Amen

I'm glad the team opted to go the settlement route instead of dragging the victims into court. Since John Doe 1 and 2 are choosing to remain anonymous, they clearly don't want that circus.

True. A settlement is nice, but doesn't begin to cover the years of damage. A sad day.

Not in todays' society. I'll be shocked if either survives. Q maybe has a chance as it was pay grades above him, but still a member of his team.

Who knows...glad it's out and over with, as in no more speculation about it.

problem is black ace aka John Doe, was outed in report by listing his age at the time....20 so it wont be hard to narrow him down quickly with past rosters, etc....

I am not touching it. I don't care who it is, and outing him does nothing at this point.
