I really hope Kisio gets considered. Though he would be a bit inexperienced (Burke will help him out), he seems to have a solid mind for the game. Another huge plus would be the fact that his eyes have been on the WHL intensely, so he will be very familiar with a great many prospects and young players that graduated from the WHL itself (not just the Hitmen). Really a great angle there that could potentially help this organization.
Can't believe nobody has mentioned Loob yet - not that I think it would happen.
There are lots of great candidates. Jim Nill would have been really nice, but there are a multitude of great candidates out there. There might even be more potential good GMs out there than potential good coaches. I just hope it is an EXHAUSTIVE search filled with EXHAUSTIVE interviews.
