I don't see how that is discussed at all there, but anyway, the point is he will have another job before the Hawks build another dynasty.

He's going to have another job long before the Hawks are ready for another shot at a dynasty. If he wants one, absolutely. He's still under contract so he'd need the Hawk's permission. Not granting it would be a bush league move. He might not mind getting paid $6 million to take a year off either. But what's the right landing spot for Q? It would have to be a team that is already on the cusp of being good. People started talking about the Kings but I don't see that as being much better than the Hawks. St. Louis? Montreal might be the job he really wants. Where have you seen he'd need permission? He was fired. No coach that was fired needs permission to take another job. That only happens when a coach decides to step away or they "mutually agree" to part ways. Even if he did wait a year, he will still have another job before the Hawks are ready for another shot at a dynasty.

He's going to have another job long before the Hawks are ready for another shot at a dynasty.

no thank you

Bowman showed way too much loyalty to his guys. Either extending them or reacquiring them. There was no way to predict Seabrook's decline being so steep...in that sense you can extend some of the blame beyond Bowman/Q to players like him for not playing to their expected, much less peak level. It would have taken a lot to let him go (see this article, though it's behind a paywall so might have to incognito it: https://faxesfromuncledale.com/how-not-to-write-about-the-hawks-elimination/) Crawford is the 8th highest paid goalie in the NHL right now. No one could have known he was going to miss 60something games with some mysterious head injury, but his contract isn't the issue. The Bickell contract, sure, though Teuvo Teravainen isn't making this team a contender (and Scott Darling definitely isn't). Danault would look great in a Hawks uniform, but it took deadline deals to get us over the top in 2015, so I'm not going to be too mad about going that route again in 2016. You can make excuses for any particular contract, but the point is the cap issues were known in advance of signing all of them, and he should have made more difficult decisions earlier rather than resigning everybody. They dominated the league with great offense and defense and mixing and matching goalies, but then you commit to both the aging defenders and the no longer young an cheap goalie and you shoot yourself in the foot. It's obviously not the same thing, but teams like the Patriots let guys go all the time. Bowman showed loyalty to the elite of the elite and the mid tier guys. You can't just resign everybody and assume the wear and tear won't affect them in their's 30s.

why? how?

The Bears are 6.5 point favorites against a division opponent which is shocking since they haven't beaten a divisional opponent since 2007. The Bears are also in first place and control their own playoff destiny. Although they have virtually no chance at a first round bye, they can avoid the top wild card team, Carolina if they maintain their current position. This is a pretty big game; not only is it a divisional matchup, but it's a preview of their Thanksgiving Day matchup in Detroit, 11 days later. A win here will make the Lions a longshot for the playoffs, as they go Bears/Panthers/Bears/Rams over their next four. Anyway, I hope the Bears smoke the Lions and start revving up for a potential divisional championship.

the money is there. They have plenty of money, and they got even more with the absurd tax cuts. Choosing not to spend on talent isn't the same thing as money not being there.

Kevin White as a healthy scratch is disappointing

The ricketts won't pay players to own the libs

You're both dorks, but we know this.

Bills are getting 5.5 in the cbs pick em , and I'm seeing bears by 9.5 now.

Looks like bears are favored by 8.5 Pretty big number for a road game. But if the 4 wins, three are by a TD or more. Early Buffalo forecast is pretty good football weather.
