Again, all you have to do is compare Benning's moves to similar moves for similar (and sometimes worse) players on other organizations to see Benning has gotten ripped off on almost every transaction so far. There are literally dozens of these moves.
For example, the Lack trade. In the 2013-2014 season here were the goaltender transations that involved picks (so no Miller trade etc):
-Halak + 3rd for Neuvirth + Klesla
-Berra for a 2nd
-Dubnyk for futures
-Viktor Fasth for a 3rd + 5th
-Scrivens for 3rd
Berra was coming off a season with a .897 save percentage. None of the goalies above had ever played more than 29 games in a season, and none had been in the league for more than 3 seasons. IF you add in this year's trades including the outlandish price for Jones and three picks for Talbot and it's evident that a 2nd round pick and a later round pick would have been fair compensation.
Also, Benning just seems to have no clue what he is doing in things like cap management.
The fact that we are once again missing draft picks in the 2016 season (if Wispi is correct) when Benning basically failed to restock the picks he traded away in the first place is alarming. Is he going to be scrambling to do this every year?
As pitseleh pointed out, the idea that he didn't pick up the arbitration option on Sbisa is mind boggling.
I'm also trying to keep an open mind but it's more like 'well, this dude has been stabbed through the chest so I hope he lives' moreso than 'these moves might turn out to be good'.
