2018 NHL GM Rankings #8

[LeafsNation75]

Better restart the polls so we can make the "unproven" Brisebois last.

I'm sure there are some people who will give Brisebois a lot more credit than Dubas has ever got and use some excuse how he had more of a role in getting players currently on the Lightning.

 

[Haatley]

My point is it's dumb to show how great Kekailanen has been with a few select trades when his teams have never won a playoff series in their franchise history and last season blowing a 2-0 series lead to the Capitals, after winning the first two games on the road.

Now I realize Kyle Dubas has not yet won a playoff series as an NHL GM, however the Toronto Marlies just won the 2018 Calder Cup and he was the GM responsible for that team. Of course since that's the AHL I know others will say it does not count, but I figure mentioning it can not hurt him.

There are a lot of GMs that won in the AHL. And none of them are top ten NHL GMs until they win in the NHL. Or are a GM for a full season. Won a playoff series. Won a game....

Long story short, Dubas should not be voted in now or anytime soon.

Sorry to disappoint you but it looks like that's going to happen a lot faster than you wanted.

That's fantastic. No one cares. Its just sad that you guys can't even be umbiased in meaningless polls. Its a blessing if he gets voted in. Now the rest of the voting can be reasonable.

If it's a meaningless poll why do you care where Dubas would finish? It's not like he was voted #1 or even in the top 5.

I dont care. I just said I am happy he will be voted so it can go on in peace. I can still share an opinion, though. Stop being so childish.

Yeah maybe your right. At least we can get these guys outta here now after their guy they finally got enough of them to vote him in. Back to normal i guess now, I was about to throw in the towel on these rankings cause having a GM with no resume get 8th was the dumbest thing Ive seen in 3 years of doing these polls but it should be expected from these people, its what they do. At least now we can move fwd. Youve convinced me, 9 is NEXT

You must have a huge hate for the Leafs because when you did the top 31 head coaches poll and every teams 2019 Stanley Cup odds poll, when Mike Babcock and the Leafs themselves finally got the most votes you complained about that on the next question when they were no longer an option to be selected.

Well should be the last of you people for the remaining GM polls

Uh ya, that's what will happen when the most biased fanbase votes.

Does dubas's ahl and ohl resume not count?

Most of the GM's left have negative strikes against them...Dubas does not.

Why would AHL and OHL count for him and no one else?

.....it counts for everyone

 

[Hischier and Hughes]

so Dubas is leading because Toronto fans want to see the OP upset or something?

Why even have a poll section

I guess that makes us equally biased as you are.

 

[Pyrophorus]

Actually....what about his period before Lou?
More than 4 months.

Haater should never be able to convince anyone of anything.

He didn't take part in that draft, without Lou, didn't trade away Kessel?...

 

[ccman68]

Is Dubas still the 8th best Gm in the league? Seems weird he was ranked so high before doing anything. Especially because leafs fans are always unbiased.

It’s no different than when Edmonton was voted the #2 cup favorite the year after they made the playoffs

 

[TheDoldrums]

Yeah no different except Edmonton was terrible that year and the Leafs are 2nd in the East, 4th overall in the league.

 

[Hawkaholic]

Poile at #2.

 

[BruinsFan37]

I find these ranking polls to always to be very sketchy.

Dubas "winning" at 25% means that 75% of people thought thought someone else was better.

30. Dorion
31. Dubas
