What do you guys think of Bowman's decision to not release Dach to play in the WJC's? Consensus seems to be split on other forums.

I'll also add, if we're gonna not only blow a year of his ELC but also a year of rfa status, how about we start farking playing this kid a little more?
man, I am really getting tired of the decision making from JC and Bowman....

I think he should have been released for the WJC's. He could have got regular shifts and a lot of minutes.
I read that Barrett Hayton and Joe Veleno were released by their teams for the WJC's.

The monetary thing aside, the kid is going to miss out on a lifetime experience.

You probably saw on one of our threads about last season the Hawks sent Jokiharu to the WJC's. Then sent him down to the AHL the rest of the season. Then Bowman traded him to Buffalo for Nylander. Or as we call him, useless. |

They asked JC today after practice if Boqvist was going to the WJC's and he said you'll have to ask Stan that, his decision. |

Bowman is taking away some rare great memories from these kids for his own selfish reasons. |

He is trying to keep his job showcasing the #3 pick, one of the few things that look like he got right. This team is going nowhere, Dach needs playing time, should have let him star at the WJC. I think it would have boosted growth |

I think it would have boosted growth i'm on the fence on this to be honest. this time last year our record was much worse yet for about 10 minutes inside 10 games to go in the season we were a playoff team. if you let dach go then doesn't boqvist get to go too? that's 2 starters on a woefully thin team. listen...i'm not sure i agree with denying them the chance, but as a g.m. i'd be scared that it could be conceived as throwing in the towel. jmo. |

Would it be right to assume the decision to keep Boqvist is due to De Haan being out for the next 4 mos.?
Couldn't they have called up Philip Holm for a few weeks and let AB go the WJC's and get regular ice time and play in all situations?
It's not as though having Holm instead of Boqvist for a while will cause them to lose more games.

To me it sucks that these kids are going to miss out on a lifetime event because this team has this unrealistic pipe dream that they are a playoff team.

I try to have hope for this team that they could turn it around, and keeping Dach here then makes sense. But with performances we seen lately I would have liked him to play at WJC. Boqvist is a tougher move since we are thinner on d. But I have no problem with seeing more guys from Rockford get a look while we send Dach and Boqvist to WJC. Let’s face it Dach has been playing well but he is not a vital piece yet and Boqvist has not been great. Both could have benefited playing WJC. That all said GT, I hope your right and the boys get hot and make a run for the playoffs. |

What is the point to babying a kid along, never gets good minutes, rare pp time, and is on a bad team. What’s the point to keeping him? I think he’d have been better off at the top jr tourney in the world. Poor poor Stan is getting stupider by the millisecond!!!

Dach now has zero points in his last 13gms. He's not playing bad but he's still trying things he did vs teenagers.

He never ever should have been here in the first place. If he wasn’t 3rd overall, he’d never of had a shot with any other team including the Hawks. He’s a great kid, and he should have been allowed to remain a kid. I hope they don’t ruin him, it’s the last thing we need!!! |

I felt from the get go that for his development, and for cap reasons Dach should have been allowed another year in the minors, but instead, a year of eligibility is lost in a desperate, quixotic attempt by Stan to save his miserable hide...the other high picks have generally been returned to their junior teams, because they have competent team management. Now the kid is going to be denied a once in a lifetime chance by the ineptitude of Bowman...if he and McDonough were actual hockey people they would know how big a deal it is to rep your country at the WJC. |

I've wondered how much the Hawks brass were influenced by Dach being the 3rd overall pick in deciding to keep him up. He missed a big chunk of the preseason and had to have fallen behind in his learning curve, yet he was still kept up. As an 18 yr. old rookie, I would have thought this would have decided the matter. Suppose the Hawks had been drafting in their original, pre-lottery drawing spot, what are the chances Dach would have gone back? |

If the Hawks decide to send Dach down, he has to go to Saskatoon right? It's not like AHL where he can go back and forth as needed. |

My dislike for Bowman is now turned into hatred.
Dach and Boqvist are missing out on some great memories at the World Juniors and the Swedes might've beat Russia if they had Adam.
