I didn’t want to reply to this because it’s mainly irrelevant and disapproves nothing, these long posts are annoying to breakdown and give a long ass answer to but here goes

-Hadzeus was unbearably slow, I didn’t like his style of play, in 2014 he was absolute hot garbage especially in the playoffs and should not have seen one minute on the ice
-Yes I called out Bowman’s stupid moves at any point in time but ONLY his stupid moves, my main issues with him started when he traded Saad, TT, that’s when I started calling for his head. He was good at small tweaks around the prebuilt core but but when he started making major roster moves, he was clueless.
-Crawford was meh and would have lost the 2013 cup if it wasn’t for Darling saving his ass, he lost the 2014 cup and if he showed up with above average goaltending and wasn’t absolute garbage in that LA series the team would have a threepeat, and any average goalie would have won the 2015 cup with that powerhouse team infront of him
-I never called for Q’s head although I did question some of his roster moves and lines and so did everyone else
-Without Scott Darling Hawks don’t have 2013 cup
-About the whole Sharp/Ben Smith/Jemermy Morin, Regin, these are debatable roster moves, how was I wrong about those moves? Playing Morin or Regin in the playoffs in 2014 gave the team SPEED instead of Handzeus which was killing the team producing no offense and being so slow and meh defensively, and last time I checked the team LOST that year and the difference between winning and losing was razor thin, literally a game 7 OT game…

Your last paragraph is not worth replying to. I was right on so many accounts, you wanna pick some small line moves and say I am wrong about those or Crawford, sure be my guest, those are debatable points. However the moves that Stan the Man made that ran this team into the ground are in full 20/20 hindsight now and I was right and there isn’t much debate, although some here will still justify his moves which is mind boggling.

I agree with you on Darling but that was the 2015 cup. Nashville had Crawford's number and I don't think the Hawks get past the Preds without Darling's heroics.

Acting like you were the only one talking about this is funny, when everyone had the same exact thought. Good job

That's right around the time you called Saad a superstar as well, turns out, he was what he was, and didn't get any better. Wasn't even that big of a loss in the end.

Crawford won 2 Stanley Cups, you don't win 2 Cups while being meh. Sometimes goalies struggle, and Darling did a good job of stepping in (and it was 2015, not 2013), but ultimately failed, and Crawford had to come in to save his ass.
And yes, goalies sometimes have bad runs, happens to the best goalies on the planet, just admit you were wrong about Crawford and Darling, but especially Darling.

Darling wasn't even a Blackhawks in 2013, But, without Crawford and Darling instead in 2015, they dont win that Cup.

i will reiterate the point isn't to relitigate whether or not it was justified for our dear friend to beg with tears streaming down his face for years on end that the third winningest goaltender in franchise history be traded. it's just to say that there's several very good reasons he isn't taken very seriously even when he isn't just speaking utter nonsense.

I wasn’t the only one talking about Handzeus. Pay attention bro I was replying to a post…

Darling was 2015 you are right, and without him you don’t have a cup, you can’t say Crawford won the cup that year. That reminds me Crawford almost lost the 2013 cup with his soft pathetic goal given away to Detroit. He lost 2014 cup. Average goalie at best who go lucky with an insane team.

Saad wasn’t even a big loss? Trading Saad for Anisimov was a huge mistake, bad trade and I called it out from day one while you were celebrating and nitpicking on words, that lead to one of the most disastrous trades in NHL history to us losing Panarin shortly after. See these are the kind of statements that just show your lack on knowledge about the game.

Without Crawford they don't win the 2015 Cup either, its not one or the other. Both were crucial to winning it. No one cares about what ifs, and no, he didn't lose the 2014 Cup. lol

No, Saad wasn't a big loss, he was a half a point per game player who was overrated defensively.

The fact you still sit here and talk about 10 years ago is telling, you have nothing to add to this forum, and no one likes responding to you. Why you keep coming back to gloat about stuff you think you were right on is beyond me. No one cares.

I don’t care about being liked, I spit facts about our current situation, then people say I am clueless and don’t know what I am talking about, ok sure then that’s when I bring up the past and how those same people were telling me same thing about Stan when I would call out his moves back then when most were happy with them. As long as my current views are being critiqued when I am sure I gonna be eventually right I will bring back the past to back up my theories. Davidson is garbage people need to know that now and not in 5 years when he was a failure for a whole decade.
