The compounding impact of the fact they also gave up a pick for Elliott isn’t really that relevant to me. That deal was also sound it just didn’t work out
It is easy to gm with 20/20 hindsight. But it’s a cruddy way to evaluate a gm

I am curious if he has any bad moves on his resume? Seems to me giving up a 2nd and two 3rds for 4 years of goaltending at the most is a bad move. I would also guess that the package for Elliott probably would have got us Jones, I suspect Brad picked Elliott over Jones, not that the Bruins found greater value in a 29th overall pick and a former 5th rounder than a potential 34th overall and a potential 75th overall.
Hamonic bad move
Not picking up any scoring help in the offseason bad move.
Lazar, horrible move.
Trying to fill a top 6 forward spot with PTO's in back to back seasons is a different approach.
Having one of the thinnest prospect pools in hockey bad move.
Hamilton was a good move
Frolik signing was a good move.
Not sure if I am missing any good moves.
