NHL GM’s often make it out to a few games to watch there prospects

No he will not be back
Often eh?
I'm in 5 scout rooms a week and this was the first one i've this this season.
I may see 1-2 GM'S a season in OHL arenas i wouldn't call that often.
Much more often at AHL games yea.

Can confirm they usually make it out to see there top prospects often they do not even enter the scouting rooms they like to be under cover

Looking forward to seeing what impact the return of Stonehouse will have on the team.
More than likely, if anything, it will impact opposing team's preparation versus the 67s as they will have to emphasize discipline and limit retaliation situations.

Weird that they would think being out with 3-6K fans would be staying undercover when they can go to the media room / box see 10 people and stay low key lol.

With respect to GM’s in arena’s, there are multiple reasons why you would see it. First, and probably the most common, is the GM is travelling with the team and is currently in the area so they make a pitstop to see a couple of their prospects. Calgary was in Montreal on Nov 5 (Tuesday). They are in Boston tonight. This aligns with him being in Kingston on Wednesday morning.

Ottawa is an NHL city so we would see a lot more GM’s in our rink than others would because it is an easy viewing when dates align with prospects they want to see, whether they are top prospects for the upcoming draft or their own prospects.

I can count on 1 hand how many NHL GM'S i've seen at OHL games in the last 5-6 years.
They must be out mingling with the fans as @AGranderson mentions.
Just seems incredibly strange to me that they would be.
