Game thread now locked so I’ll share my thoughts again here.
I think everyone can agree Hextall has done a phenomenal job of ridding our immovable contracts (Lecavalier, L. Schenn, Pronger), accumulating picks, and drafting plenty of potential.
With the cupboard stacked, what has Hextall done to give anyone hope that he can properly evaluate when a prospect is ready for the NHL (baring being blatantly ready), bringing in NHL talent (See Weise, Umberger, Filppula, Mrazek failures), or hire a competent coaching staff? (Hakstol, Gordon, keeping abysmal Laperierre) Having faith in him for the next phase, if he ever is even ready to make that step, takes complete ignorance of everything he has shown as GM
