IMO to be a credible team you have to give a GM five years and a coach three.

You have to live with your decisions unless a Babcock caliber hire is available. In that case, cutting ties early makes sense due to the upgrade.

GM has to always be looking for upgrades at every position. Coaches too.

If GG goes do you let an assistant take over? No way. Do you hire another young GG like coach?

I don’t see Sutter coming back. He’s smarter than just about everyone in this org and IMO only BT would be OK with that. In other words I see no scenario where B.B. and DS work together.

I’d rather not have half a season of garbage.
