The Chicago Blackhawks have a lot of work to do during the offseason if they ever want to be an elite team in the National Hockey League. They are bad and some people have yet to come to terms with that just yet. The glory days are over and it is time to move on.

It is impossible to rebuild the right way when you hang onto pieces that helped you 10 years ago instead of building for the next ten years. The Chicago Blackhawks certainly have that issue on the horizon with a few different guys. How they handle that will certainly be a big story over the next year or so.

To help them along with these decisions, they need a new head coach. Derek King is probably in the mix as he was the interim guy for the remainder of the 2021-22 season after they fired Jeremy Colliton. The team wasn’t so good, however, with King that they feel the need to just hire him without seeing other people too. 

Who they hire is going to be very telling when it comes to the direction of the team. There are some coaches that come to town with the intent to win and then there are some who know they are there to help them build something from the ground up.

The Chicago Blackhawks are looking for someone to be their new head coach.

If the Blackhawks do move on from King, there are a lot of people for them to consider. These are three of the very best options for them to consider as they look for someone new to lead them from the bench:
