The Chicago Blackhawks elevated Stan Bowman today, and while fans can be upset, they shouldn’t be surprised by the move.
Over the past few years, the Blackhawks have shown they trust Stan Bowman over other pieces within their organization. First, the team decided to fire Joel Quenneville, and then it was when they released John Mcdonough and kept Bowman around.
The Blackhawks organization has put their faith in Bowman, and today’s move continues to show that. It is important to note that while Bowman has made some bad moves in the past, he has had some good trades throughout the years, plus this past offseason was arguably one of his best.
