- He's wasted assets chasing incredibly poor depth players, including but not limited to Travis Hamonic, Brian Elliott, Curtis Lazar, Mike Smith, Derek Forbort and so on
- He has signed some of the worst free agent contracts that have been handed out league-wide during his time as a GM (Brouwer, Neal), and then traded Neal for an arguably worse contract in Milan Lucic
- This team is 10 games into the season and it looks like all the problems that have existed for years are already here and making their impact on the season
He also fired a Jack Adams winning coach that had the team perform beyond expectations and win a round while playing an exciting style to watch. He replaced that guy with Gulutzan. I mean, wow, that's just a horrible, horrible move looking back on it.
