@patersonjeff: Gillis 'good': Ehrhoff, Hamhuis, Tanev, (healthy) Malhotra, 2011 Higgins, Stanton, recent Kassian, (possibly) recent draft…

@patersonjeff: Gillis 'bad': goaltending, loyalty to aging/fading core, NTC, Sturm, Roy, Pahlsson, Booth, Ballard, public persona

McDavid will tank his season to drop in the draft and avoid this poop show.
- Nucker101


It won't matter, we are dealing with Feaster here......anyone remember his drafting ability from his Calgary years?

Besides, we got this draft to worry about where two things could happen.

We pick a third rounder with our 7th overall pick.

Or,

Trade the pick to Calgary for Cammalleri, then trade him at the deadline, then subsequently re-acquire him the following year.

How about hiring Quinn as an adviser to help find a GM.
- A_SteamingLombardi


Quinn would be a good option, but man is he old now, 71 is getting up there.

I'm a fan of Ryan Johanssen, plus I like their GM and I think they will be a contender in a few years.

Sounds good. The player agent thing didn't workout, so lets go outsiderer of the box and hire a TV analyst.

Have you seen him recently? The man is dying. He won't make it to next season...

You know what, I would love for one of these guys (like PJ) to get a shot after the way they run their mouths on TV about how not to do things. I'd just like to see it happen with a team other than the Canucks...

Funny how all these reported names are quite literally the definition of a puppet and tool.

You'd think scouts would make better GM's than agents...

There's a lot more to being a GM than picking / trading players. Scouts do most of that work, the GM just gets the credit / blame for it.
