I don’t know why some fans find it so hard to accept that the maximum amount they can possibly know will always be less than the minimum amount a GM can know. Doesn’t mean the GM doesn’t make bad decisions, but when you only have access to a fraction of the information, you should expect not to understand some things.
Hockey people thought GG was a good hire at one point. As in Greg Gilbert.
Dallas Eakins was a hockey genius. The list is long.
All Peters can sell is theory and personality because his record is not impressive at all.
