Name 3 GM’s that walked into a worse situation specifically when taking over a team in a rebuild?

I'm not going back and researching what every GM inherited, and why qualify that statement with "team in a rebuild"?
Look at the most recent GM's.
Hextal - been on the job for less than a month, maybe he turns it around but the Pens are on the decline.
Armstrong - Coyotes are a disaster, he was left a huge mess.
Zito - Don't really follow Florida, looks like they are doing well. Have at least one huge bad contract.
Adams - Buffalo is a dysfunctional team and has bad contracts.
NJ and Vegas are pretty good situations.
MIN is treading water and pretty much sucks.
Holland walked into a mess in EDM.
Yzerman walked into Holland's mess in DET.
Treliving walked into a team with no large contracts, tons of cap space, lots of draft picks and some good/great young players to start with. Pretty good way to start.
