The Blackhawks Week That Was and Will Be, 3/2: Ch-ch-changes

The strongest feeling that remains after Tuesday’s hiring of Kyle Davidson as general manager is one of relief.

For about four months now, this team has been floating around with no real stated direction or purpose, a symptom of both the head coach and GM operating under the “interim” label. But now the general manager is locked in and, no matter which way the team heads from this point, at least it will be going somewhere again. There are things to like and dislike about Davidson, countless reasons why he could fail and why he could succeed.
