But from what I saw in the season and again in the playoffs, I truly believe we need to clean house and go in a different direction. This also means with Timmins and the scouting staff. How's it possible with the last 2 GM's we have had the same type of problems happen every year in the regular season and in playoffs. It just doesn't make sense to me. It is definitely time for Timmins and some scouts to go. One impact player every 5 or 6 drafts, is not enough. Price, Mcdo, Pac, Subban, gallagher, maybe Sergachev, maybe caufield. That's 15 years of drafting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree , if MB is fired then Timmins would be my choice for GM outside of not being fluent in French. I think he understands it enough to get by Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree with you, 2 different GM's over 20 years and both don't see what the problem is and cant fix it. We need a full house cleaning and a totally new vision for this franchise, No hold overs . That's the only way i see things on the ice changing.
