I have to say, i'm slightly worried about an AGM that made his bones being the AGM of a team that had two of the top 5 players in the league for a decade and half, and could largely fill in their top two lines with relative nobodies and succeed.

But here's hoping he sold a solid plan and vision to Leopold and my concerns are unfounded.

Don't know how to feel about this one. One things for sure...he won't have to do much to top Fenton.

I love his stuff, but it's better if you assume that the cultists and Elder Gods are the good guys and are just being slandered by a neurotic New Englander that was afraid of salad. The Colour Out of Space is the only story that's ever struck me as all that frightening.

Did you read At the Mountains of Madness? It's very good too. Kind of bummed the movie fell through, but let's see what Colour will be like as a movie. Hopefully it does well, so we can have more adaptations. Almost all the existing ones are campy B-movies, which I feel doesn't do justice to the stories.

The Spanish movie "Dagon" is a good enthusiast attempt, but you can see it is not a big budget movie. They do try hard though, which makes it enjoyable.

I liked Hextall's drafting and management style, of not letting anything out. Here's hoping for a resounding amount of success for you boys! Your team really isn't that far off from making a resurgent push.

This is what I feared is that Leipold got locked in again. Also apparently Guerin played a major role in the past few years on trades.
you would think he learned from being locked in on fenton, but who knows. hopefully he truely was the best option we had and does a good hopefully great job at turning this team around and setting us up well for the future.

The Athletic article doesn't give a glow review of Guerin...

4th gm in franchise history and two of the previous were amongst the worst GMs in NHL history.

When did we employ Mike Milbury? or Pierre McGuire? Or Brian Lawton? Or Rejean Houle? Or Chia? Risebrough wasn't good, but he certainly wasn't the worst GM in NHL history.

I didn't call him the worst.
