You make it sound like he can snap his fingers and make a trade, it is not that easy.

Yet it is his job and he is not doing it...

We miss the plyoffs next year. Snow needs to go along with half the team.

i disagree.

I'm with you. It's not like its Amazon.com. you don't just search what u want and add it to your checkout.
- Dedshark

Yeah but it is his job and he is not doing it and has not done it. You can't just draft players and not add other players through trades or FA signings. Its unrealistic.

If this team stays as is with this coach to boot you can book us missing the playoffs. Remember we were supposed to "compete for the Stanley Cup"

He has added free agents... just because they arent the free agents that you want, doesn't mean he's not doing it.
As for trades... when one comes along that is worth it.. he'll make it

If he can't make a trade or sign a decent player then its time to get a GM who can

Come on, you're an intelligent guy. It's not only the signings I don't want. Stop mincing words. His signings are signings that don't help his team and for the most part we all knew the day he signed said player that they would be a non factor

You didn't have too. Either he doesn't or he can't? Pick one

We can blame it all on Wang and he is a huge part of the blame but so is Snow. Snow has not made one move to improve this team, and his free agent pickups the last few years are a joke.

He HAS done both.

XxNYIxX

Well Snow does...
- mighty13duck

Well not me and just because he "believes" it doesn't mean it is! For someone who is touted as being so smart he sure is stupid!

Just realized we have a chance today. Rolston and Mottau playing.

I can go back and pick dates and signings and acquisitions but do I really have too? The guy has been sitting on his hands for years now. I get the whole rebuild thing but come on. This is not even a good argument/discussion. Its one sided(and not to your side )...

LOTS of teams sign free agents that arent what was expected.

Snow has signed some good, some bad... just like any other GM.

Very good point!!

Maybe just maybe Garth Snow and Charles Wang sat down and listened to the Brian Burke interview...and maybe just maybe they've learned something from it. Being humble and admitting ones mistakes is a virtue few carry, but one to admire. For Garth and Charles to admit they're mistake in bringing Jack in, a young potentially good coach, coaching a young and potentially good team was in fact a huge mistake.

If you're agressive you can get something done...Snow isn't and that's the problem I have with him...

You're 100% right last summer he brought in Rolston, Staios, Reasoner and Pandolfo...A job well done Garth...

Rolston will score a pair of goals.
Mottau will have an assist and be a +3

what we need + what has been available + what we can afford to trade = doesn't add up
