NOTES
BLACKHAWKS: Chicago Cubs assistant general manager Jeff Greenberg has interviewed with the Blackhawks for their GM opening, becoming the first known candidate for the job from outside professional hockey.
The Blackhawks confirmed the interview on Monday. CEO Danny Wirtz, the son of team owner Rocky Wirtz, promised last month that the process would include candidates “both inside and outside of hockey.”
Greenberg took on his current role with the Cubs in 2020. He joined the franchise in 2012 as a baseball operations intern. He also has served as the Cubs’ director of pro scouting and baseball operations.
Greenberg has degrees from Columbia Law School and the University of Pennsylvania. He also interned with Major League Baseball’s labor relations department.
The Blackhawks also have interviewed interim GM Kyle Davidson, Carolina Hurricanes assistant GM Eric Tulsky, former NHL forward Scott Mellanby and longtime NHL executive Peter Chiarelli for the role.
Former Blackhawks forwards Eddie Olczyk, Marian Hossa and Patrick Sharp are helping the team with its GM search.
