while most agree that sending him to the AHL may not be a negative, why is it silly to question arguably the worst run hockey operations department in the league over the past few years? after years of failure, why are people willing to continue giving a pass to our management?

personally, i get the impression that sven is a player that needs his hand held a little bit to succeed. with that in mind, they should ensure that he gets top 6 minutes to start the season. this team is going nowhere for the next 3-4 years anyways, may as well do it with him in a position to succeed.
