What I love about Ken Holland is that his career as GM with the Red Wings overlapped with the prime years of Nicklas Lidstrom.
You know... the HOF defenseman who literally played 30 min a night? So
literally half the game was all star level defending?
And the moment Lisdstrom retired, that franchise went into the toilet. They have had a single 100 point season, and one playoff round win since his time.
Despite this - Ken Holland is not considered a braindead moron.
I mean, he is NOW.... but damn, way to kill your unearned legacy.
So I'm thrilled to see him both be a self professed lame duck and the guy responsible for the next 2 (and final) years of Conner McDavid as an Oiler.
It's gonna go SO GREAT!
