Everyone involved with hockey in Toronto is 40-60 per cent overrated. Poulin was a great player and a great captain with a Flyers team that made the Cup finals twice. But his resume as an executive is meh. One former Leaf executive is enough. Fenton would at least have experience developing and managing talent within the framework of a tight budget, without resorting to UFAs, something Leafs management always has problems with.
