There is one constant over these last 20 years. We can question the individual capability of each GM, but the direction is ultimately set by Edwards.

This is on Edwards. It always has been.
IIRC, a media insider said the same thing.

I don’t know what it will take to convince some fans that for the last 20 years the strategic direction and major decisions of the franchise are set by Edwards, not the GM.
