Kyle Davidson has finally responded to Luke Richardson being fired demand from fans
The Chicago Blackhawks were able to put themselves in the win column last night. They secured a victory, over another rebuilding club, the Anaheim Ducks who arguably have multiple offensive weapons and could've seized the day.
Nevertheless, they were able to put a damper on the Ducks and won the Duck Hunt last night.
Even after news of the win, fans have been irate with the Blackhawks lately, as they haven't been as competitive as advertised.
Which is unfortunate because Luke Richardson should be able to win with the pieces available. Which includes Tyler Bertuzzi, and Teuvo Teravainen.
Fans are still calling for Luke Richardson's job, and after being let down by the Blackhawks in multiple ways including CHSN this season, who can blame them?
It appears that Richardson unlike a certain Boston Bruins coach is safe according to Davidson:
Davidson, however, labeled those as «ridiculous thoughts.» Richardson's job security remains strong. His seat isn't warm, much less hot.
While he appreciates the fanbase's passion, he mentioned how frustrated he feels with the team's performance lately as well.
The Blackhawks by all means are not a finished product, and won't be for quite some time.
Keep in mind this iteration of Blackhawks hockey is one more step in the process, to give the prospects in the AHL time to mature.
While giving Connor Bedard in the NHL some mentors, and some competitive pieces to play alongside.
While nothing is ever perfect in the NHL, expecting too much, too soon in a rebuild could be the reason many fans are angry.
The Blackhawk's last Stanley Cup was in 2015, and now they're rebuilding. It may have come too late, arguably but now is the situation we have to face.
This is the vision of Danny Wirtz, and company on the ice.
