I don't share it, but it's valid. At least we now agree he didn't do "nothing".

I think he's assembled teams that I like on paper (GM's job), that hasn't gotten it done on the ice.

So that is on the players or on the GM for hiring the wrong coaches. Suspect it's a bit of both.
Do you think Brad has built a winning team in the last 6 years?

I will concede he has done something, if you take 16/17 as the starting point he has. I was wrong on that point and concede it.

On paper he has somewhere between the 3rd and 5th best group of forwards on paper in the North Division, he has a top 3 defence and one of the top 2 goalies in the division. There is a pretty significant gap up front between the Flames and the Leafs for instance On paper it looks like a team that should make the playoffs and be first round fodder for someone to me. I am not sure on paper it looks like a winning lineup. I have a hard time looking at the Flames on paper and credibly thinking they are a top 10 team in the NHL or even a top 2 team in the North.

I feel he has not and does not know how to build a winner. On that I guess we disagree, you feel he has built a winner or can build a winners.
