BlackHawks GM finally breaks silence on the Corey Perry Saga and the truth is now increasingly demanded by many fans

"It wasn't easy and it's still not an easy task. You are responsible for so many players and there are consequences.

Whether it's for Corey Perry or for Kevin Korchinski, which is a very different case, you feel everything because you care about your players and you are attached to the staff members. You worry about their families too."

"(About Corey Perry), we managed it and we got through it, and I'm glad that's in the past." - GM of the Hawks

These jobs aren't easy. You're responsible for so many people. Whether it's that (Perry) event or something very different with Kevin (Korchinski, whose father died) and his family, you feel everything, because you care about your players and your staff, and you care about their families."

"When something happens and it's a positive, you feel that in a great way. When it's a negative, you feel that in a really negative way. You carry a lot of the ups and downs of the group in your everyday job"

"(On the Corey Perry incident) We handled it and we got through it, but I'm happy it's in the past.»
