my thought is that brad has been at the helm when some good decisions were made, and some bad decisions - the worst ones being with respect to coaches.
he seems to be ok at being a GM.
at the end of the day are the flames that much better than when he took over? there have been what two playoff rounds won in his tenure.
however, the other reality is that if they move on to someone new, then it becomes a process for the new person to get their people in place, and to reshape things to fit the new GM's vision.
Also, lets be real in that i would have to think that calgary is not a top destination for free agents, so it is hard to retool quickly.
