So it seems as if the general consensus is that GMGM mucked up the expansion draft, then mucked up trading his surplus of defenders, and Vegas is going to have an abysmal team next year.
So, name something that GMGM did during this process that you think was awesome. Can also name something you think was not so awesome if you want.
Awesome: Getting Schmidt and Theodore. Exactly the right defenders for the future. Both relatively young, great puckmovers with lots of room to grow and take on more responsibility. Fantastic to get both of them.
Not so awesome: Not getting Linus Ullmark. There's nothing in the pipeline for young goaltenders, and you can put all your chips on Fluery, but by the time Vegas is ready to compete, he'll be long gone. Would have expected more planning for the goaltending position.
