He's simply running the team as a bottom line company and has been unwilling to sacrifice seasons for a rebuild despite that being a requirement of building a cup contender. You seem fixated on the term "meddling" where I simply consider him a bad owner from a fan's point of view.
The guy is such a goof even when the team has been forced into a rebuild, he's ensuring that employees don't admit it. He's terrified of reality of the situation coming out of the words of the organization because he's terrified it will upset some paying fans. Still he does dumb things like hide the Conroy extension and throw Maloney into the spotlight which blows up in the face of the organization. Good owners don't do these kinds of things.

Right ... but they are rebuilding and he's either allowed it or isn't paying attention.
I hate the messaging stuff, but he's allowed his GM to not add to the team in 2+ years, move UFAs and non UFAs for futures, not spend to the cap, and draft more than they've ever drafted in the first three rounds in the last three years.
