After reading all the posts of this thread here are my thoughts.
1) Brandon Pirri has the second most potential of any centerman on the Blackhawk roster right now.
2) Brandon Pirri is currently the worst centerman on the Blackhawk roster right now.
3) Sharp and Hossa would rather play with Handzus than hold Pirri's hand as he develops.
4) Stan is looking toward the future and wants Pirri developed.
5) Q is a win first coach (24 game point streak!) and is more focused on icing the best lineup each night than planning for the future.
Conclusion: We have a coach who is acting like a coach (win first) and a GM who is acting like a GM (big picture). I think it is very healthy to have two leaders in the organization with different ideas. Stan and Q both have pretty solid tract records and if this supposed conflict necessitates the two to talk more about the current and future state of the team I think it only helps the Blackhawk organization.
That would be ok, except icing the best team to win now possibly includes Pirri.
