Absolutely not.
He's a rookie GM who hired a peewee coach to lead an NHL team; Gorton was not a success in New York; Bobrov's reputation is worse than Timmins; and Molson is a terrible and cheap owner.
Hughes has to earn trust. No more "In Bergevin we Trust" crap.
I dunno it seems to me the hiring of MSL should be considered a feather in his cap not a detraction. It might be his best move to date, (including Dach) and he's also made quite a few astute maneuvers with his asset management skills. Other than my disappointment with the passing on Michkov, and the Allen contract, it's hard to find alot to fault him for thus far. Reinbacher looks great.
He has a plan and is sticking to it, far more refreshing and "trust worthy" than Bergevin.
Also seems strange to hold Molson and Gorton against him. That has nothing to do with Hughes.
I'm not saying we should blindly have faith in every move he makes, but imo he's certainly earned some trust and confidence moving forward
