For sure but you would hope with his experience as GM he isn’t going to overstep and prevent the GM from doing their job.

That's were it gets a little muddy. All these guys have big ego's or they wouldn't be where they are. It's interesting. The Steelers have a similar thing going on right now and by all accounts they've had a great off-season

I could see Dubas setting the vision and saying... "This is how we intend to play. Now bring me the players that support it". The GM will largely be an AGM. Really just semantics. Probably just removes some of the more tedious work from his plate.

It would be a reach but this is what I was thinking. I could see him wanting HIS guy, who will follow his marching orders. Spezza was a very well liked player as I understand it too.

The ideal situation would be bringing in Darche now.

His first move is going to be getting Nylander, Murray and Timmins for Rust, Rutta & DeSmith.

Man seeing Rust forgo more money at his home town Red Wings to sign a long term deal in Pitt only to be traded after a season would absolutely suck to see. Not saying trading Rust isn’t the right move, but as a personal fan I would be sad.
