Stan Bowman - GM of the Chicago Blackhawks, NHL & Turner TV deal, playoff races in Montreal/Calgary, Nashville/Dallas and more.

Scott and Pierre welcome Stan Bowman, the general manager of the Chicago Blackhawks to the Two Man Advantage edition of the Athletic Hockey Show. Stan talks about the progression of his young team in Chicago, his relationship with Patrick Kane and he provides an update on injured captain Jonathan Toews. Stan also provides some insight on building the US men's Olympic team.

We dissect the somewhat surprising broadcast deal between the league and TNT Sports, and how it might impact a raise in the salary cap.

The guys talk about the playoff race between the Flames and Canadiens, Dallas and Nashville and St. Louis and Arizona. They take a look at the Jack Adams race, with Joel Quenneville, Dean Evanson and Mike Sullivan leading the pack.

As always the boys wrap their podcast with the popular segment Ask the Dorks where they take your questions via twitter from around the NHL, including questions on Adam Fox, the Minnesota Wild and Jack Eichel's future with Buffalo.
