This is not a desirable job.
-star players don’t want to stay here.
-management would rather bet on themselves than stick around.
-the new interim GM, who is in Line for 0 GM jobs, doesn’t want it.
What outside candidate is going to come in to be saddled with “make the playoffs with Huberdeau and Kadri”? Nobody, unless they’re guaranteed the opportunity to rebuild the team after this inevitably fails.
This is a blessing. It’ll force the owners to look in the mirror.
