I feel that he has been able to skate on his father's reputation, despite his own mistakes.

I completely agree with your opinion on Bowman. However, I do believe that Arthur Wirtz will be keeping a close eye, and i don't think that he is going to be too gun-shy to make a change.
I can't think of too many teams that haven't experienced a restructuring of their management and coaching staffs when they enter a rebuild, and often there are changed when they are exiting the rebuild. I will be shocked if Bowman is still the GM in the next 2 seasons.
