C- only because he unloaded Heinen.
He should have seen they were not big enough or tough enough after last years finals, in an attempt to fix this he added two Ritchies instead of a Maroon as an FA or Miles Wood. He is incapable of addressing the lack of size and grit on this team and it continues to cost them. A good regular season team built on speed, lack of size, lack of heart and lack of grit isn't winning in the playoffs.
He STILL has not gotten a second line RW continually using the excuse of filling from within or with AHL level talent. This by itself should get him fired.
He had drafted averagely after 2015 which was a disaster but there is no top end talent in the prospect pool.
He does a great job on contracts for the most part, he badly overpaid Heinen and Backes but fixed it, even though it cost them a first round pick.
He is mediocre at best and hopefully this playoff failure will be his end here
Maroon only cost TBL 900k for a one year deal too
