The way I see it is GM's usually get to fire and hire at least 1 coach. I think PHO will get to fire at least 1 GM before getting canned. King sold this job to Burke as a job he can have for 10 years or longer. Most GM's get at least 3 years before they are fired and I think a PHO will have closer to 7-10 years to run the team.

Like a GM with a coach the new PHO will get to decide if he is keeping the current GM or bring in his own guy. Where i see a PHO getting fired is if he disagrees with the direction of the owners, an ownership change or long periods of sucking/mismanagement (like Oiler fans wanting Lowe to take the fall for their garbage past 8 years)
