Bernstein must be real happy being forced to talk hockey today.

Seemed like there was a lot of friction between Q and the front office. Bowman acquired some bad players, regardless of system, and Q also misused some players Bowman acquired.

Kempeny was Q's fault.
Seabrook still being on the team at that salary is Bowman's fault.
Not finding a legit, faceoff-winning #2C is Bowman's fault.
Lack of cohension in the lines is Q's fault.

This is Bowman's last chance; if Colliton can't spark some life into this team this year and next, Bowman is gone. Let's give Colliton a chance and see if he brings a system that mirrors today's NHL. Relying less on Keith and Seabrook on special teams and giving young players a chance to succeed is apparently what Colliton brings to the team.

Lack of cohension in the lines is Bowman's fault. 3 defenseman more or less carried those cup teams. We had star offensive players with people that filled in well and contributed especially on the '10 and 13' years. Bowman is responsible for the last few years and it's been shit. Say what you want about Q not playing younger players but most of the younger players we've moved haven't done much anywhere else and the ones that have done some thing were moved because of cost which is also Bowman's fault.

How’d you like to be this Colliton dude walking into the room for the first time to address the players following Q’s legacy ? Good luck commanding that room.

Kind of a cool story there

And he just corrected a caller for saying Joe instead of Joel Quenville. D-dag.

That is cool, and I am still glad he is gone. If sets in motion a major shake up of the front office, then I am fine with that too. This season was trending like last, and a lot of things needed to change.

Really? I would say if you haven't won a Cup (or a World Series) in 50 or 100 years your approach probably should be a little different than if you've been dominant for 7-8 seasons with a couple championships. And unlike the Cubs the Blackhawks can ill afford an extended period of irrelevance like the one they're facing right now.

Zawaski. My mistake.

I wouldn't trade any of the Cups for anything.

That's fine, but you may well have been able to win another one without Toews anyway and you would have set yourself up for another good long run.

Realistically, when do you think they can be a legit Cup contender again?

Weren't you the guy bitching about Toews all the way through the last Stanley Cup season? Who you crappin'?

Well, that's a little silly, but if you're correct I'm not sure how you could argue that the last Cup was worth it.

Well, I expect to be dead by 40 by way of suicide, plane crash, or hidden undiagnosed malady, so they could be back on top in about ten years give or take.

McCub starting the conference. Asshole should be dropped from the top of the new atrium.

Such a strange press conference so far...almost Bears like circa January 2010.

Fucking Lispy would have 0 rings without Dale Tallon. That is the real architect of the dynasty, not the fucking member of the lucky sperm club.
