They need a crazy person like Hextall to blow **** up, but I don't see that ever happening.
We just had a crazy person who wasn’t afraid to blow **** up. He didn’t know when to stop and set us back.
We need a smart GM who can recognize that if you add 4 wingers, a right handed PP QB, and a reliable backup, this team can be a playoff team.
My pick is Hunter, but if Gretzky keeps doing what he’s doing, I’m not opposed to him either

What exactly has Gretzky done that's impressive?
Cap dump goalie trade for a fading prospect who was/ is likely going to be a ufa and traded a nothing player for an older nothing player who also happens to be a former Oiler.
Pretty sad if people are so used to incompetence that moves like these make them feel confident in Keith Gretzky.

Talbot for Stolarz is a wash, both will be free agents in the offseason but gives us a little wiggle room in cap space. Gagner makes less than Spooner, so just on that alone it's a win.
He cleared capspace, and got a useful player for a useless player. I’m not confident in him yet, but as I said, if he keeps making those moves, I’m ok with him. That’s a step up from what Chia did the last year and a half. If he can move out Manning without taking back a worse contract, that’s huge for our team next year

My choice is a GM who has the balls to tell Nicholson that he won't take the job unless he has full autonomy to bring in his own people and if he's forcefed MacT, Howson and their merry band of failures then Nicholson can pound sand.
It already seems like the brainwashed Oiler mouthpieces are pushing for Keith Gretzky so that could very well be it for the forensic audit. I'm honestly not sure why he gets so much praise, most of the prospects in Bakersfield were from a previous regime and these two trades he made, while fine, don't move the needle much at all as next seasons' cap situation has remained unchanged.
Unless he's able to move mountains, namely Mt. Lucic, there's no way I'd be ok with him being the next GM. Just more of the same.
I don’t think he was their plan B that day (I don’t believe any of them think that far ahead) but I do think there were pleased when Chiarelli hired him. He’s a family member of an OBC member, someone who has a bit of a management resume and best of all, they weren’t the ones that brought him into the organization. I don’t know how many times I’ve heard that brought up, especially by Nicholson.K.Gretzky was probably their plan b the day they hired chia.
