We have a GM problem

[Hattrick Kane]

Has yet to make a significant move to improve the Blackhawks. So far, all he has done is trade players for picks and those deals look like an L so far. He settles for Teravainen and Bertuzzi at free agency. He doesn't take any chances and you can't get good without taking chances

Who was available in free agency that would make this significant difference?

You want a Bowman like trade where he trades for another Jones and f***s the team for years to come?

Jason Dickinson trade
Signing Vlasic long term
(too early to tell) signs Brossoit

Not sure what L deals (trades for picks) you're talking about - he's still on the clock with all draft picks he's responsible for. Getting Hall and Perry have backfired and so far Bertuzzi and TT haven't impressed. Brodie is unacceptable...

I don't care about missing on Hall, Perry or anybody that's here temporarily - this team desperately needs high draft picks this season and next imo. So far so good in that aspect.

Yeah, if anything he should have stayed away from Bertuzzi and TT, and just signed some depth players instead.

He'd be crucified for not signing those guys if he didn't. Zero win circumstances.

Those are fine. Cap goes up, not maximum years, we need depth.

We need a coach to get anything out of this team.

I thought these were you giving out grades at first lol

It wasn't until I got to Gajan that I realized they weren't

 

[Kevin Musto]

I thought these were you giving out grades at first lol

looks pretty similar to how I grade drafts

 

[Giovi]

looks pretty similar to how I grade drafts

...or how we grade your draft grades.

If KD doesn't fire Richardson for his gross incompetence and misuse of Bedard, he can go too.
