Hard cap or Bowman to blame for Hawks tumble?
2011-04-17 16:57:00 NY Post's Larry Brooks puts the blame on GM Stan Bowman for the Hawks taking a dip in the standings.Brooks says the hard cap is just an excuse for Bowman's misguided offseason moves.The biggest issue cited here is letting go of Antti Niemi to only turn around and sign Marty Turco, instead of keeping Andrew Ladd. Sure, Turco doesn't seem necessary now that Corey Crawford has taken the job.Bowman would have looked foolish however, if he would have started the season as defending champs with an unproven goalie.It's not the hard cap that's doing in the Blackhawks as much as the bizarre offseason decisions the front office made in coping with the situation. When GM Stan Bowman, the fellow believed responsible...

Bowman: Not looking to change core
2011-02-27 07:14:00 Stan Bowman says he has had plenty of trade discussions, and hopes to add to the depth at center and defense. Bowman says he isn't looking for anything major or to shake up the core. "I'm having a lot of discussions but nothing to report yet," Bowman said. "We're not looking to change the core guys at all. We don't think we need drastic changes here, we just think we need to add a little bit to the mix. There are certainly enough things that are in play that we're hopeful something will get done."We're not going to be adding an All-Star-type player. We're looking more for a situational-type upgrade and that will help the group. If not, I'm very confident...
Blackhawks: The Biggest Mistake of Stan Bowman's Summer
2011-02-04 17:05:00 Consider the following resume: 51 games played 10 goals 10 assists +7 36 blocked shots 54.6% faceoffs 3 game-winning goals 16:12 average ice time $1.15M cap number (expiring after this season) Would you want that on these Chicago Blackhawks right now? From Dustin Byfuglien to Brent Sopel, a case has probably been made for the Blackhawks to bring back every player removed from last year's team (except Cristobal Huet). But as February gets rolling and the trade deadline creeps closer, the player GM Stan Bowman should bring back is a guy that never wore a Blackhawks sweater. The well known reports now are that the Blackhawks are looking to add another center and/or add depth on their blue line....
Bears' Bowman Not Coming Back to a Starting Job
2010-11-12 00:07:00 We all knew, coming into this season, that Bears' offensive line was going to be an area of concern, likely throughout the year. But, one of the other big question marks was the Bears secondary, specifically their depth at the cornerback position. In fact, the one guy no one seemed worried about was Zackary Bowman....
Blackhawks GM Stan Bowman Gets a Headache from Boston
2010-10-09 18:53:00 On a day when the Blackhawks organization and its fans look back at history, the future entered the conversation yet again. Hours before their season opening game overseas, the Boston Bruins announced a seven-year, $45.5 million contract extension for defenseman Zdeno Chara. This is an intriguing contract on a number of levels for hockey fans, specifically in Chicago....

Hjalmarsson offer sheet jeopardizes Bowman's word
2010-07-10 04:56:00 Doug Wilson fired a high, hard one at the upper left corner. Stan Bowman has seven days to take one off the mask or duck for cover. The former Blackhawks defenseman took a shot at his former team as Wilson's San Jose Sharks signed Niklas Hjalmarsson to a 4-year, $14 million offer sheet. The puck is now in Bowman's corner as the Hawks general manager has seven days to match the offer or take the Sharks first and third round selections in the 2011 NHL entry draft as compensation for losing Hjalmarsson. There is more at stake for the salary-cap strapped Hawks than losing Brian Campbell's defensive mate. The Stanley Cup champs may now be forced to choose...
Cubs Live Game Thead: Can We Hire Stan Bowman?
2010-07-02 17:18:00 Dear Jim, Hi! How's you're summer going? Having a good time at the ol' ballpark? Glad to hear it. Me? Not so much. I don't know if you're aware of what's going on with the Blackhawks lately. As you're probably aware, they were a pretty good team this year. In fact, you may have seen a large, silver object being used as a giant beer bong in various haunts around the city. Even though the Hawks were a VERY good team; one of the best, in fact, they've never stopped trying to improve their team. So far this off-season (which is only about a month old), they've managed to trade Dustin Byfuglien, Andrew Ladd, Kris Versteeg, Brent Sopel, and others. These...
Blackhawks top Oilers after Bowman does nothing
2010-03-04 06:25:00 It was an early March doubleheader for the Chicago Blackhawks on Wednesday. While the Hawks beat the lowly Edmonton Oilers 5-2 in the nightcap at the United Center, the afternoon affair has been postponed til late spring. Or, at least we won't know the outcome til then. Blackhawks GM Stan Bowman's cards won't be revealed until the playoffs. The rookie executive is bluffing a full house, but savvy players sense the short-stacked Bowman is holding a weak pair. Either way, he was in a tough spot with Dale Tallon as his dealer. Hawks fans now know that they are all-in with Cristobal Huet and Antii Niemi. Or is it Niemi and Huet? I guess it depends on the day...

Bowman, Bowman, Bowman & More
2009-08-05 03:20:00 If ESPN (as a whole) allows Jeff Dickerson of ESPN (Chicago) to be their lead man when it comes to Chicago Bears coverage, we may actually get some balanced and detailed football reporting from the Worldwide Leader. Dickerson is my favorite thing going right now. Here are some excerpts from his News & Notes with my commentary... Things got chippy Tuesday. Guard Tyler Reed had a dust up with defensive end Mark Anderson during line drills. Later, cornerback Zack Bowman squared off with receiver Earl Bennett near the goal line."It's just a matter of time before tempers flare up a little bit," head coach Lovie Smith said. "No damage done. I tell guys if you get into a fight, just...
Bowman's youth will be tested by NHL general managers
2009-07-21 19:01:00 Stan Bowman tried to lower imminent trade expectations at the Blackhawks convention, saying not to anticipate him being active in the player market right away. That shouldn't mean a thing. What's the guy going to do? Ramp up the focus on him in his management infancy by saying he is going to be active in the trade market for the next couple months? Have a nice vacation, but keep your eye peeled for my first significant trade. No GM of worth tips his hand to the media or fans, even a little bit. We never heard a peep about adding Marian Hossa until the free agent signing was done. Some things haven't changed since the firing of Dale Tallon....

The Mind of Scotty Bowman
2008-04-03 16:22:00 Has anyone figured out what goes on in the head of Scotty Bowman? If they have, I sure would like to talk to you.In his current position with the Detroit Red Wings as a consultant, Bowman takes a low-key approach when speaking about his roll with the Red Wings. I had to laugh yesterday when I heard Scotty on a local radio interview when asked about the health of Tomas Holmstrom. Scotty said he read a report he may get in a game or two before the playoffs start and his current injury is improving. Now do you think Scotty actually read this report, or maybe, just maybe, he is updated on a daily basis on the health of Holmstrom? Oh Scotty, we can read right through you, heck, you still have your finger on the pulse of all things hockey, but by telling us you read a report, well, you are just downplaying your status within the Wings organization.We know you talk to coach Babcock on a regular basis and we have seen a little of Bowman in Babcock. We know your involvement with the Wi...
