Stan Bowman Promoted As Blackhawks Hand Out New Titles

    CHICAGO -- General manager Stan Bowman has been promoted to vice-president/general manager in a series of moves by the Stanley Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks.

    The 37-year-old Bowman became the youngest general manager in NHL history to win a Stanley Cup when the Blackhawks defeated the Philadelphia Flyers in June.

    Chicago's championship, its first since 1961, came in Bowman's first year as GM.

    Bowman, the son of legendary NHL coach Scotty Bowman, was named the ninth general manager in franchise history on July 14, 2009, when Dale Tallon was demoted. Stan Bowman is now in his 10th season with the Blackhawks after serving in a variety of capacities, including assistant general manager.

    Couldn't be happier for Stan. I've know him since he left Arthur Anderson and came on as a Special Assistant to then General Manager Mike Smith. He has gone through hell the past few years with two different cancer scares, while trying to raise a young family. Congratulations.
