Add Sobotka and Thompson to that list. Also, took him way too long to figure out Remi wasn't an NHL calibre player. The list of little annoyances has painted a picture of an incompetant GM.The point isn’t the cap, it’s that Botts thought Wilson was someone he needed to avoid arbitration with.
This is the same GM that thought Jordan Nolan belonged on an NHL roster.
I know some people want to give Botts the benefit of the doubt. They want one more offseason for him to prove himself. You know what? Maybe he does turn it around. Maybe he's evolved, and learned from all his dumb miscues over the past two years. I'm willing to give the average person a chance at redemption, but Botts isnt an average person. He's an NHL GM who can effectively alter the teams course with his decision making.
I'm a betting man who's played his share of Poker throughout the years. I ain't willing to go all-in on a pair of twos when there's a chance at a straight flush on the river just like I ain't willing to go all-in with the direction of this franchise with Botts at the helm. The odds of him turning it around are underwhelming to put it lightly.
