Not sure how this equals zero eye for talent. Those last two trades were bizarre for sure though.

It’s interesting to see this list. Thanks for putting it together.
I think the perception of Sutters GM skills are skewed by the one trade with the leafs and his coaching hires.
But
It seemed like Playfair and Brent were the way to go when they were initially hired.
And
If you believe the gossip, Dion “had to go” because of friction in the room. Perhaps he was given the choice as to where he’d be traded.
The one area Sutter wasn’t great in was drafting. Was it 7 drafts he was in charge of? Produced 3 or 4 players of note?
