It worked out as the Blackhawks became successful both on and off the ice during his time at the top of the Hawks'.

One name that would definitely make some fans happy is current Blackhawks' TV analyst and former player Eddie Olczyk. Scott Powers and Mark Lazerus of The Athletic believe he should be near the top of the list and here's why:"One name that's been surfacing a lot lately is Olczyk, the Blackhawks' and NBC's lead TV analyst.
