Speculation: The Next GM

[ScottyK]

Hopefully, ownership is next to go. They tore down our culture and have brought nothing to replace it.

They replaced Lou who was abysmal his last handful of years here and have done nothing but invest into the building and surrounding area.... Shero didn't work out and they cut bait before it went on for hilariously too long.

WTF are you talking about ?

Willing to give Fitz the interim here to see what his vision is and how he rides things out.

Owners know he's in demand elsewhere so they gotta be handing him the reigns fully for remainder of the season to see what he can do.

Far as outside candidates go, anyone's guess.

Well Fitz was in demand...I’m sure some of that’s interest he previously received has waned an it with how the season went along.

If only we had signed Trouba

Fitz as GM and Marty as the AGM for now makes a lot of sense. Both Hextall and McPhee would be decent if we look outside.

Somebody better then Ray. That wont be hard better shoot higher.

You clearly don’t realize what an actual bad GM is.

This has to be trolling right? RIGHT??

They literally bought out our hundreds of millions of debt, transformed the Rock and have elevated the value of this franchise from 25th(?) to I believe 15th or 16th most valuable franchise in the league since they have been here.


GTFO with this.

Nothing would get done because we would argue endlessly over every move.

We'd be the first front office in the league to use "stoppable goals" as a metric.

No thanks on Fitzgerald. One of my biggest bones to pick with the now previous regime is how poorly the AHL squad has functioned as a developmental platform. He obviously played a big role in that. If you're going to do this, turn turn the keys over to an outside person. You can make Marty the AGM.

Bleed will find out a shooter tutor can have a better sv% than Cory and Martin Jones and it will be our backup

is he the one who is in charge of adding players to binghamton's squad? i'm pretty sure that was also ray's responsibility

All of our best prospects went right into the NHL or were/are overseas, in the minors or NCAA. Bing struggles because our best prospects are not there. (excluding a few)

So much goes into the AHL squad I don't even know how much you can ding Fitz for that. Sure it wasn't exactly a high priority but you could on some level claim that most of the guys Shero was drafting were either college guys or overseas guys that either haven't played in the AHL yet or can't go there like Boqvist.

-would Dean Lombardi be of interst?

A guy with such close ties to Lou? That might be a non-starter for the owners (and/or for Dean). I have no idea which way they'll go, clearly they want to win now which would suggest a big-name vet or giving a coach like Lavi a lot of say, but they could be fascinated by analytics and hire one of the faceless young number crunchers too.

Would Marty be qualified enough to take on the role? At the very least I think he should be assistant GM. It might be too early for him to be GM

And they aren’t struggling right now

No he isn’t qualified to be the GM. That is a very Oilers move.

i'd be too scared - imagine if he was GM as well as john maclean was coach here
