Are people still wanting to rage on me for pointing out how much Gillis has (frank)ed this team....

Here's the deal. I WANT GILLIS NOT MAKING ANOTHER TRADE EVER AGAIN.

...and please point to one single player who he's drafted thats a regular in now his 6th season?

Please folks, this dud is an agent. He'd make a good ast GM because their main focus is contract negotiations. Thats about all he is good for.... which brings up the question of how much credit Gillis gets for that here even with Gillman being the one doing the main negotiations.

I've been hard on Gillis all season about his lack of courage, but it's probably the result of his overzealous use of the NTC as a carrot for contract negotiations bogging this roster down.

If he's not the man to plan the future of this team and execute that vision (which I don't believe he is) then he needs to go. Nothing is clearer in my mind regarding this franchise.

Meh, I'm still a Gillis fan, but he's made mistakes.

He's (frank)ed this team no worse than the previous two GMs, yet still took them to the SCF.

Why are you a fan of MG besides the homer aspect which was the only reason I was a fan of his at the start? His trades suck mostly. The ones not made or made too late cost us. His draft picks are still not in the line up. The team went to the cup final on the backs of the two previous GM's with only partial credit desrved to MG.

Gillis hired someone who is excellent at negotiating contracts. Theres Gillis biggest succes.
