			I guess they didn't want to risk letting him take them through the trade deadline. JD taking over the GM duties.

			Hiring Babcock was pretty silly, among other things.

Because he only has a year left on his deal.
 
So you either extend him (unlikely considering his performance) or you cut the losses now and find a new GM so you don't have a lame duck GM next year

			11 years and all he has to show for it is making it to the second round once thanks to a hot Bobrovsky.

			You could see this as far back as the 2016 draft.
 Dud of a GM.

			Probably because he didn't trade for Tanev/Hanifin/Markstrom.

			That’s gotta be the toughest gig in the U.S. Keeping your stars is improbable and signing UFAs even more challenging. That said, team needs a new perspective because what Jarmo has been doing hasn’t worked.

			It wasn't long ago (maybe 3 seasons?), when many on this very board hyped Jarmo up as a great GM for putting in place all these great pieces like Sillinger, Johnson, etc. They have 19 and 16 points respectively lol.
