Snow would be regarded as a much better GM if he hadn't made the Vanek trade, had found a better return for Nino than Clutterbuck and the DiPietro contract. DiPietro is not even his fault because Wang was probably the one that negotiated that one. Regardless though he has built a contender with a limited budget, he has drafted very well and he has been absolutely amazing at selling his players on accepting reasonable contracts.
Actually I will take Snow, I might be the only non-Isles fan to do so but I would feel comfortable with him as GM.
This is exactly how I feel. I liked Snow a lot and fully supported the rebuild and his terrific drafting up until the Nino trade. IMO he had no excuse not to at least acquire a goalie last season.
However he has redeem himself with Pulock, Ho Sang and MDC. And altbough Halak, Boychuk, and Leddy are solid moves Grabovski and Kulemin need to produce more offense.
All said I give Snow a B+ and choose him over Sather and Lou.
