Damn, the Hawks with another big play in the 2021 tank wars.

Signing a guy that wasn't even good enough to stick around on one of the worst teams and worst d-cores in history is a shrewd, savvy tank move, well done Chicago.

He wasn’t a good enough defender to make the red wings. That’s pretty much all you need to know.
Exactly.

I knew nothing about Bowey before he came to the Wings and he was BRUTAL on defense for them. And to stand out as terrible on the Wings defense the last couple seasons is really doing something special.

I've looked in my crystal ball and seen that the precise date a dude called "Madison" will prove to be worth anything at hockey is February 9th of the year never-the-f***-ever.

Hawks fans, hope with all hope that Madison doesn't suit up for you guys. He may have a little offensive touch, but in the defensive end, it is like he has a grenade on the end of his stick!

He’s signed for the expansion draft

Bowey was probably responsible for no less than 10 Wings losses last season.

Yeah, we had a lot and would have finished last place without him, but no bullshit. This guy will snatch defeat from the jaws of victory; when it's a tie game and you think you're going to claw out a win he'll cough the puck up at the worst time in front of his net or make a pinch that even Brendan f***ing Smith knows not to make.

he's the tank commander we need, not the one we deserve then

I don't understand the hate he's getting in this thread. He's pretty good.

Seattle might end up taking Subban or Delia. Not that I'm saying I'm counting out Bowey, but I see them taking a goalie from Dallas, Jake Allen or Braden Holtby, unless Vancouver dumps the Myers contract on them via trading one of their picks.

no way Bowey is picked they just have to meet exposure requirements

He can't defend.

Period.

Bowey shoots the puck nicely and creates this illusion about some good possession player.

But if you look him play, you see these horrible flaws on his Dzone play.

Maybe somebody could use him as a forward, but that's about it.

^ yeah wake up hf ... this signing is for one thing and one thing only .. to have a D for Seattle

You are wasting your time, it has already been mentioned 10 times in this thread; apparently comprehension is not a strength for a large number of HF members.
