Drafting Sven and Gaudreau were very good moves. Modin and PLL trades were nothing for nothing. Going to the KHL to look for some help was a good idea. In fact the way Cervenka has played the last few games, I wouldn't mind a new deal for him, at an appropriate price of course. His hands were completely tied with the Iggy situation. If he didn't trade him, you would've probably been upset that we didn't at least get "something" for him before he walked away a UFA. Admittedly, I don't get his and Weisbrod'd love affair with the NCAA, but I'll give him time to see how that plays out. Hudler was a good signing, Wideman was probably over priced but still a good pickup. Its hard to say how the ROR situation would've played out had it give through, but he had confirmation from Bill Daly, that it wouldn't have been a problem. I think some people like to be haters for the sake of being haters. He hasn't brought us a Stanley Cup in the 2 and a half years he's been here, well then he must be a horrible GM. He's no Ray Shero, but he's not worse than Tambellini or Garth Snow or Doug Maclean either.

He might not be worse than the 3 in bold, but he is on par with them. That should not be acceptable for this franchise, even if he is slighlty better than those 3, which i don't think he is.
