Pretty simple. The GM is the guy who manages the action going on and drives the bus, so to speak. I just look at it as did I like the pick at the given time? Looking at what was available and what was missing in our system did I like the pick at that time?

Don't know the Flames list. Couldn't listen in on the trade offers that were received and rejected. Don't know the scouts recommendations. Oblivious to all the scenarios that were probably presented and discussed at length.

That's right. But did I like the outcome? I don't know all of the decisions that went into engineering my car, wasn't privy to all the arguments over design and marketing, wasn't aware of decisions made at the dealership, but I sure like how it turned out, so I bought it.

You can be happy with the selections or not, but rating the GM is stupid.

No, having this argument with you is stupid. But I've got nothing else to do for the next hour, so....
