This week’s first sweep loss to the Nashville Predators by the Blakchawks was a shocking blow for Chicago sports fans. Many feeling the Blackhawks dynasty has a faltered, especially after a strong regular season. Hawks GM Stan Bowman spoke to the media and seemed to share the sentiment. It’s worth noting in this short speech he stated that Coach Joel Quenneville is still the team’s coach, but he did not allude direcly to any other major changes to the team. It’s clear Bowman is going to do some moves in the off season.
Stan Bowman: "We did not come even close to reaching the standard we've set for ourselves over the years here."
