I like the line, "has done a well enough job". classic justification for hiring someone to run your team.
I think the GM role needs to transition like the coaching has, we don't need to see the same Mike Keenan's/Marc Crawford's over and over again.
There are more than 30 people in the world capable of running an nhl team
