"As per club policy"

Man, that _really_ needs to die. We find out within 10 minutes of the contract being signed, anyways. Cut the smoke and mirrors and just tell us already. Even the eternally reticent Jets have been doing that.

Awesome deal for Arizona, Murphy should easily outperform this deal.

Err... Wow.

This new guy isn't just a GM... He's a magician too.

If John Chalka keep pulling off these good moves Arizona fans are gonna start referring to him as just "JC".

It's already going to stick with me haha. We currently use GMJC

And on Schenn/Murphy

After this write up, he probably has less credibility then Eklund now. Ok nobody has less credibility then Eklund but that's how bad it was.

Chayka has passed every test so far. It's early but I'm impressed.

I couldn't be more happy with this deal and with everything JC is doing or has done so far.

I said that when he was hired that I wish him nothing but success if only to beat the apparent stigma that young people can't be successful in this kind of career. I have no issues with any of his moves, and love a few of them. We'll see the results in a few years, but so far he's tracking well.
