Report: Blackhawks interested in Raptors executive Teresa Resch for GM opening
The Chicago Blackhawks are interested in Toronto Raptors vice president of basketball operations and player development Teresa Resch for the team's vacant general manager position, reports Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.
The Blackhawks indicated they would look outside the hockey world for options when they started searching for a new GM. The club recently confirmed that it interviewed Chicago Cubs assistant GM Jeff Greenberg.
Resch was one of Raptors president Masai Ujiri's first hires when he joined the organization in 2013. She previously worked in the NBA's head office.
The Blackhawks have already interviewed several candidates for the GM position, including interim GM Kyle Davidson, Peter Chiarelli, Mathieu Darche, Scott Mellanby, and Eric Tulsky.
