    My only question is, why did they feel a letter was helpful? We already knew everything it said. Sure, teams are lining up to take Toews (10.5 M), Keith (5.4 M), Seabrook (6.88 M), Andrew Shaw (3.9 M). The difference between the Rangers’ rebuild and Chicago’s?? Rangers HAD assets they could move, Hawks have Patrick Kane. And they won’t.

    Oh, and a second and first overall draft pick in successive years didn’t hurt.

    I don't understand why this was such big news for Toews and the rest of the gang. It's pretty clear which way this team is trending. I don't think a full rebuild is needed but they definitely need to start changing the old guard. Unfortunately the old guard are on expensive contracts.

    This is purely marketing. It's the owners way of saying we are terrible but here's an excuse. Keep buying our stuff and coming to our games when that is possible again. I doubt the GM really changes anything.

    All this does seem a bit much over trading Saad and not signing Crawford.

    The reason the Hawks did this was because they were getting CRUSHED on social media in Chicago. Not only did they send out a letter but Bowman did several interviews after being silent for months. He wasn't even at the press conference when they brought in Zadorov. Overall, fans have no confidence in Bowman and rightfully feel that the team has been rudderless for a while. The Hawks were negotiating with Crawford up until the day before free agency and even kicked the tires on Murray before deciding to go with a youth movement. We are more decisive with our fantasy teams than Bowman has been with the Hawks. Then, they didn't communicate this new direction with Toews and Co so you had all the articles about the core being pissed. Today was all about spin control.

    The problem with what the Hawks are doing is that Toews, Kane, and Keith probably will keep the team from being bottom-5 bad in the league. Plus, they have Dach, Strome, Kubalik and a couple other pieces so they will stay within sight of the playoffs if Delia isn't horrible. They really needed to tank against Edmonton and get either Rossi or Perfetti to get their rebuild going. Dark years ahead in Chicago. Glad I get Center Ice and watch the rest of the league.

    Two words: healthy scratch. Especially the latter too. If they don't want to leave Chicago, let them watch games for three years.

    True enough.

    Either way, if Toews and Kane think this team is trending in the right direction, or at least holding on to playoff hopes, they are kidding themselves. Father time wins all battles.
