He was infinitely worse than MacLean. I am always surprised by the crap that MacLean gets on here, although I guess he isn't in love with the Flames so people get bitter about that. MacLean's problem was that he never built a team bad enough to get the top picks. When you look back on his picks they weren't bad at the time and rarely was there a better player taken all that close to the guy he chose.

The fact he drafted Nash alone makes him a better GM than Howson.
