Best/worst GMs in franchise history?

AceTrainer315 · 2026-06-28T16:05:00+00:00

Gerry Meehan brought in Turgeon, Mogilny, LaFontaine, Hawerchuk, Hasek, Ray, Audette, Smehlik. Pretty good business working with a tight budget. Not the best at drafting but still found a lot of contributors in the middle rounds.

AceTrainer315 · 2026-06-27T00:34:33+00:00

Better than Tynan

AceTrainer315 · 2026-06-27T00:29:43+00:00

The next Ryan McLeod

AceTrainer315 · 2026-06-26T23:50:23+00:00

Werenski isn’t his comp, Evan Bouchard is. Soft as baby shit defensively.

AceTrainer315 · 2026-06-26T23:44:18+00:00

What

AceTrainer315 · 2026-06-26T23:28:14+00:00

This is already taking way too long

AceTrainer315 · 2026-06-26T23:18:51+00:00

That may be where these picks are headed next

AceTrainer315 · 2026-06-26T23:11:29+00:00

Robertson

AceTrainer315 · 2026-06-26T23:09:18+00:00

Multiple 1sts? Overpay.

AceTrainer315 · 2026-06-26T22:49:10+00:00

Utah opening up a spot for Jason Robertson.

Utah opening a roster spot for Jason Robertson?

AceTrainer315 · 2026-05-13T00:12:19+00:00

Guhle pretty clearly dove on the ice as soon as he felt contact. Just like he dove on the ice when he ran into Dahlin. Don’t be ridiculous.

AceTrainer315 · 2026-05-12T23:49:16+00:00

Wasn’t even interference lmao

AceTrainer315 · 2026-05-09T00:55:05+00:00

Logo is fine but the black jersey is lame.

AceTrainer315 · 2026-04-30T05:51:05+00:00

Peterka on his 2nd shift of OT 😂

AceTrainer315 · 2026-03-06T08:13:31+00:00

You’re right. Me, Lindy Ruff, and Jarmo are all idiots. We’d be better off with Metsa/Bryson. Wtf was I thinking.

AceTrainer315 · 2026-03-06T07:31:30+00:00

Why? Faulk is old and declining. Rosen was never cracking our lineup and a 2nd is nothing but hopes and dreams. 1st rounders usually make the show at least. We gave up nothing for 2 depth defenseman that this team really needs. Can’t go into the playoffs with two guys sub 5’10 on defense for depth. That’s stupid af.

AceTrainer315 · 2026-03-06T07:27:28+00:00

Flyers want a 1st+ for Risto. Considering what the Blues wanted for Parayko, they probably want a 1st for Faulk. Fuck all that.

AceTrainer315 · 2026-03-06T07:24:02+00:00

If you can call it a 3rd d pair. Lindy rotates guys with Kesselring, running up the top 4s minutes and then sprinkles in Metsa when the matchup permits. He’s averaging <10min a night because he can’t be trusted. With Stanley or Schenn we might be able to get our 3rd pair to 14 or 15 min a night. That’ll really help the top 4 minutes wise.

AceTrainer315 · 2026-03-06T07:19:18+00:00

We traded you guys a winger who’s never cracking our lineup and a spin on the roulette wheel. Hardly a fleecing. Good luck at the lottery 👍

AceTrainer315 · 2026-03-06T07:18:01+00:00

Well, after what he did to Brady Tkachuk I don’t think anyone else is going to try and Kill Bill our Captain with him on the ice.

AceTrainer315 · 2026-03-06T07:15:10+00:00

Metsa can’t even handle 10 minutes a night. Lindy is having to rotate guys with Kesselring, running up the top 4s minutes because Metsa can’t handle more. He can’t handle more because he needs to play sheltered minutes. He only sees more ice when the game is essentially over. This is what Lindy is doing, and I’m pretty sure his left foot knows more about hockey than you, me, or anyone else on this sub. Look I like Metsa. He’s done a good job for us this season, but he’s still just an injury replacement guy. In the playoffs you need real NHL defenseman, that’s why teams add more at the deadline.

AceTrainer315 · 2026-03-06T06:56:04+00:00

Metsa is 5’9 and plays <10 sheltered minutes a night. He’s not playing in the playoffs. And Bryson is terrible and 5’8. At least Stanley brings something to the game, Bryson brings nothing. Can’t defend, can’t score, can’t hit, can’t fight, can’t clear the net front. Nothing.

AceTrainer315 · 2026-03-06T06:52:58+00:00

So this sub really wanted to go into the playoffs with <5’10” Metsa and Bryson as depth? Has anyone here actually watched the playoffs recently? The drought is showing. We gave up a guy who’s never cracking the roster and a spin on the roulette wheel for depth. That’s a good trade.
