Fire Bowman

[Putt Pirate]

Like the trade .Adam Boqvist is a good defenceman but not sure he is a #1 dmen .Would of offered Seth Jones 8.5 mil .He wanted out of Columbus .You traded for his brother .Seth Jones should of signed for a slight discount .

That is the thing. He wanted out so the hand was in Stan’s court but he screwed the pooch on that. Probably was bidding against himself. I agree 8.5 should have been where he ended up at max.

Jones was trending down the lsdt few years...Columbus actualky better when Jones mot on the ice...
If he fails to return to thec57bpoints and real1D impact guy of his best sesdon ,then we paid for quality...If hebpkays lije last 2 sesdons and stinks,we are screwed for 9 more seasons because apart from the big bucks extention Stan of course gave him a fill NMC.

Stan brt the farm and the re-build that Jones will return to his ceiling potential...but if this flops Stan has to walk the plank.

Huge pressure on Jones not to disappoint.

And if Hawks end up with lottery puck it is only protected to first 2 spots for the 2022 draft...:

Tge irony is tgat if Jones stinks,if Toews comeback akso fails,if we get unlucky with injuries(Kane ir D-Cat( and we sink to a bottom 2 in the league then get kicked back to #3 i the actual lottery draw ,we do not get to pick as Columbus woukd get tge #3in that case.

If we did get lucky andchot tge #1or #2 after lotto,that woukd if course help us...esoecialkyvat #+with Shane Wright.


But most likely we do not get tge #1or #2 and so our only hope woukd becto stink for the 2923 draft when we get at lottery shot at Bedard or Michkov.


So are we hooibgvtge Jones experiment fails big ...we sink to the bottom and get a shot at 1 of Wright,Bedard or Michkov as our hockey gods relented to help us over either 2022 or 2023 drafts as tge case may be?


BTW....if tgexanalyrics on Jones are so bad...wo we believe Stan has abandoned analytics?

He must believe Jones will thrive away from Torts and tge CBJ "system:....but we have our own mess with tge JC "sustem"...

We will tbis find out IF our problem was the JC system or merely the incompetent personnell trying to execute it.

If Jones thrives under JC we will get our answer...obviously Stan believes the system us fine and only the personnel for it was the wrong personnel.
We shall see.

Makar just signed for 9 per season.

Also, wtf kind of pick was that last night? Read everywhere that that was a MASSIVE reach. Is Stan trying to sabotage this team?

 

[Kevin Musto]

Is Stan trying to sabotage this team?

Yes

 

[Chuck Testa]

Yes

that’s what I’m starting to think.

Or he was traded as a rental, hit FA next year and got $10M. Who knows. Hyman is gonna ink a $6M deal.

 

[CourtneyDagger50]

He needs to be gone yesterday. And it has nothing to do with Jones

Don't forget: Chicago HAS to max out the cap now. They have ZERO choice. This is going to be a much different team in a few weeks and those contracts are likely going to further handicap this team for YEARS. The stupidity is not done.

 

[Jay haller]

I hope they fire Stan and Hire Musto then fire him immediately and get a real Gm like Burke or Keenan

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Real concern is that Bowman is doing so much damage that no reasonable candidate will want job

How does one even begin to get out of the Jones mess?

The stupidity may not be done, but I'm done with you, just stop.

I was being patient and really giving it time but I have no faith in Bowman to be the person to steer this thing back into contention. None.
