Blues fan saying you should keep him.
Though seriously...Torts would be a great hire. You guys should grass-roots an effort to hire him. Big personality, big city. It's just crazy enough to work.

He tried to reply but couldn't figure out the system.

Contract extensions to coaches are irrelevant. They will can him if they feel that that’s what’s needed (it is). The fact that he has a contract doesn’t impact the salary cap. It’s only going to cost Rocky a bunch of cash.

I'm not saying what should happen. I'm saying what I see happening. JC has until Thanksgiving at least. Team will run into a few fastballs.

Aren't the Kings on their 3rd GM and 4th coach since last winning the Cup?
That's a recipe you would prefer?

Over keeping the same lame ducks?

If it nets the team a top prospect pool and a future actually worth being excited about then yes sign me the **** up. Easily willing to take Las next 5 years over our own tbh.

Have a much better odds to get a stronger prospect pool by tearing things down like LA did rather than be stuck in Neutral live weve been since 2017. While LA was trading their guys for multiple draft picks we were reacquiring Saad, trading away prospects, and trading away lots of picks in dumbass trades (like Shaw, Maatta, etc) when this team should have priortized getting as many picks as possible.
LA committed to sucking which is something the Hawks havent done until this year by keeping JC as a coach but also while trading away their first.

how is this idiot not fired yet?
its unfathomable to think that the Blackhawks executives think he knows what he is doing
in fact I hope it goes on for a few more weeks and the Wirtz father and son duo of Rocky and Danny will have no choice to but to fire both Stan and JC...

They are hoping to find a Debrincat and Dach in their pool (and we kept Toews and Kane)
Hawks haven’t committed to sucking this year. They happen to suck, but it’s definitely not by design.

Its crazy, but just from watching the games its not at all surprising. Its hard to even figure out what theyre trying to do on the ice.

This is the same front office that fired Coach Q, the second winningest coach in NHL history and a 3-time Cup winner in a 6-year period for the Blackhawks in favor of Stan Bowman, a fraud that has ruined our talent pool and miserably mismanaged our cap for 10 years going.
What's Q been up to since? He's turned the Panthers into a perennial playoff contender and one of the top teams in the NHL.
Firing Colliton isn't enough. The bleeding won't stop until we fire Scotty Bowman's boy. The apple fell really far from the tree. Really f**king far.

Are you defending Stan or JC? This is a flawed team with solid center depth, good to great winger depth and what should be at least decent defensive depth.
Toews Dach Johnson
Kane Cat Kubalik
Jones Murphy McCabe
Fleury has been bad but holy hell is this team playing below potential. What is your argument?

Defending neither, just pointing out that the grass is not greener in some other cities that other posters have alluded to. My description of the team being middling after tremendous success is somewhere in this thread.
This is where we are at and some posters wish to replace both. Fine by me but many of the choices provided are nothing to crow about.

The Hawks seem to run the same system that my beer league team runs..
Everybody run around like chickens with their heads cut off, consistently give up 2 on 1s and hope that the goaltender can bail them out (which hasn't really happened for the Hawks yet this season).
