He was just outright bad at his job.
Last summer Johnny thought he was going to sign in Philly, Hayes thought Johnny was going to sign in Philly…and Philly didn’t even make an offer because of the salary cap. When you have a player of that quality wanting to sign with you, you do what you have to in order to clear cap space.
Instead Fletcher did dumbass stuff like signing Ristolainen to a huge contract.
He was the worst active GM in the league in my eyes.
