If this is it, I'm happy with the moves. MM needs to figure out if he's a coach or a GM for next season. Unless he has a plan to re-capture the spark he initially came in with, I think he's shown to be a capable coach but a very good GM.
As far as drafting, Parsons I believe was the first high goalie pick (Wu being later) under the newest goalie scout who MM hired (if it's the same guy, he started a couple years ago replacing the scout who brought in no one for a years). I agree with the lack of development before MM (in his first season I saw progress in a bunch of guys compared to the previous season and compared to under McKee that season), and normally I'd say the trend has continued but it's hard to say given the pandemic made it so players got an abnormally low level of involvement from their drafted teams.
