Why is that? Regehr trade probably couldve been a bit better, but Bourque for Cammy, Erixon for Horak/Granlund/Worherspoon, reacquiring and 2nd rounder and still able to draft the player they wanted, Sven and Gaudreau drafting looks real real good, Wideman and Hudler signings are doing great. That's a lot more positives than minor gaffes like Modin for a 7th rounder, PLL for a 5th rounder. I don't trust Jay on his own which is why I'm happy he's surrounded himself with hockey smart people. I think he'll do good making a smooth transition from the old vets to the new era. Backlund, Brodie, Sven, Wideman, Hudler, Gaudreau, etc. is a solid group to continue to add to.
