JT Miller fits the bill, And was mentioned by Friedman
He's a good GM.Wait hes not getting fired? How does this nerd still have a job lol
Geno + Guentzel + Jarry and 1st
Matthews + Mrazek and 2nd
Leaves get playoff experience and a young goalie for cup run
Penguins retool around Matthews
I can’t imagine Anaheim would want nylander…. Not the type of player you build a winner withNylander for Gibson incoming!
I can't imagine Anaheim would turn down Nylander if he was offered. They likely aren't getting a better offer than that for him.I can’t imagine Anaheim would want nylander…. Not the type of player you build a winner with
He got out of the Marleau contract by paying a 1st so he could keep players like Kap and Johnsson who did nothing really for them and ended up trading anyways?He's a good GM.
There I said it. No, I'm not being sarcastic or joking either. He gets way too much crap because the team couldn't close, but he fixed their "crap defense", got out of the Marleau contract he had NOTHING to do with (funny enough that Lou gets no crap for this one for reasons), and kept their core together while supplementing their lost depth (Hyman for Bunting for example).
Like most GMs he has pros and cons. He's done a lot of good in Toronto (like you mentioned). But, he's also done some not so good things (Matthews/Marner deals). If he does leave Toronto and gets another job somewhere else people will be pleasantly surprised with how he does imoHe's a good GM.

I agree there isn’t a “Kawhi” out there—but I do think that JT Miller at 50% retention would be the best impact option given the cap constraints.There's no "Kawhi" available nor is there any cap available
Hopefully he lands John Gibson or Conor Hellebycuk
