Of the ones listed, Raymond was the only one I wasn't crazy about at the time. Neal - even Brouwer - were all signings I was happy about. Especially Neal. I'm on record that I think Tre has been an excellent GM from the return on his draft picks, to his free agent deals, as well as his trades. The one area where I give him a a below average grading is his coach hirings, but even then, I was happy with Peters and very happy with Sutter. Was not crazy about Gulutzan though and was indifferent about extending Ward, removing his interim title. But even with the Ward case, it sounds like instead of going out and bringing in someone from the outside, maybe he was hoping that Sutter would be ready sooner than later.
