That's fair. In my defense, though, I never said every star player would make a good GM.
As an observation, in all of those examples given above, all the teams cut ties with the 'no good' GMs/PoHOs. Whereas the Oilers continue to hang on to their past players in the face of their curennt dismal performance.
It's another case of E=NG forever. It's ingrained into that franchise's identity and corporate culture.
