How exactly does a GM do that when ownership doesn't let it happen? That was a big problem with the club. Iginla was too tight with Edwards and the ownership group never agreed to moving Iginla until the last minute. You can't rebuild if the owners are telling you to keep the star player happy rather than doing what everyone in the league needed to be done. The GM, whether than be Feaster, Sutter, Burke, Treliving or the ghost of Sam Pollack, could have kicked off a rebuild if the owners were refusing to move the assets with the most value.
