Do you honestly believe the PP has turned to trash because Mullen left?
- MJL

Is that the only reason? No. Is that a good reason? I'm sure. Not much has really changed aside from the coach. The PP struggles for whatever reason, and it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. At this point, though, I think the issue is more mental.

Anyway, no excuse to fire a coach and then have the result be this.

I don't really care at this point, but calling that interference would be a mistake.

I don't agree that Hextall should be judged in that manor. You can't discount the situation that he inherited.
- MJL

I agree, but you can also expect a GM to put together a team that improves from year to year at least a little.

After taking into a count Hextall’s flaws, I still believe he should have a job but man did he do next to nothing to improve this team outside of the draft. I feel JvR was a Necessary signing. JvR isn’t a perfect player but we needed a scorer and we needed depth on LW.

JvR In my opinion was the first sign that Hextall new that free agency existed.

I think Hextall's strengths were prospect and cap management.

I think his flaws were personnel and people management.

In short, great asset management regarding the future. Bad people management in the business/present side.
