Bingo, can you add a few sentences about your understanding of "vision" in this context?
I'll use this as a starting point as I faced the same issue. I'm looking at "vision" in terms of the overall - ownership, executive and management - and I find two of the three very sadly lacking.

Ownership: Maybe the allegedly expat owner is a good guy and has terrific vision for his hockey club. It doesn't show in public. He comes off via...

Executive: ...as spoiled, churlish and greedy, unwilling to negotiate and unwilling to engage in a meaningful manner, unlike his General Manager who ...

Management: ...clearly has a vision - which may not agree with fans' vision - but he absolutely has one. Getting "there" has been his failing so far. Hopefully this last season has made the transition for him.

So overall: -3 for ownership and executive and 4 for management. Comes out as a 1.
