You can do that in the part time when you are not calculating cost estimates.

I trust Timmins.

He pushed for AKost over Jeff Carter...there is evidence either way, good and bad...but this is where a competent GM would make a real difference, by reigning in the scouts...

That's right he wanted Giroux but got out voted by his subordinates...

He let his scouts pick it,as he was only recently named.

Also, Giroux was his guy, but trusted one of his scouts who wrote a book on Fischer. He's the one who's making the calls in the first few rounds now...

yeah, but sometimes scouts fall in love with some prospects...their size, their potential...or whatever...

A GM needs to look out for this...

- Symba.007


From what I read, it was the organization that pushed to draft a defenseman.

Timmins wanted Giroux.

He's not perfect, but he drafted very well in the last couple of years.

He just needs a GM that won't keep trading his good young players like Mcdonaugh and that will keep some 2nd round picks instead of getting Dominic Moore again.
