TSN: Allvin to be named Canucks next GM

Huh, so he was GM of WBS as well. Weird that was so little publicised.

Im pretty sure the assistant GM is always the GM of Wilkes.

Didn’t realize the Pens don’t have any other AGMs. Probably gonna have to make a hire or promotion pretty soon?

Usually it's announced in the press releases and stuff. Maybe that's because usually we have more than one. Oh well. Nothing big.

that happens to every gm in the history of sports. Because eventually every gm is going to make some bad signing/draft/trade because sports has a lot of dumb luck involved and tons of things a gm has no control over. And when it happens the fans say the gm is bad even though he is the exact same guy. At least with cup winners you know they know what winning hockey looks like. Right now there are gms who's fans are happy but its only because he found some dumb luck in the draft or whatever and it's really anyone's guess if that guy knows what winning hockey looks like or how to build it

True.

Let me make my case again without understatement

Rutherford draws far more ire than usual from fans of his two previous teams despite them having won cups. He doesn't just exasperate people, he leaves a particular section of the crowd making a case for why they need therapy. Some show atomic levels of instability. Is this rational considering the wins? Not really, but it's testament to just how much his worst mistakes pissed people off. There is make bad mistakes because of dumb luck, and there's make bad mistakes because everyone said "don't stick forks in live electric outlets" and the GM stuck a fork in. That's where the worst version of Rutherford lives.
