  1. So one could argue now that the dust has settled that Gillis was a better GM than Benning? 
     

    I always knew it was the case.

      Just appreciate what both GMs have done. Gillis freaking took us to the finals and 1 game away from the cup! (Those people unfairly bashing Gillis is just ungrateful XXXs.) Oh, and also an era of contendership where we were a powerhouse in the league. Benning left us with Pettersson/Hughes/Boeser/Demko/Hoglander/Podkolzin/Miller. Gillis gets the nod from me for sure.

      I liked Gillis. However, he had a lot of excellent parts to begin his tenure with. Benning had to make chicken salad out of chicken sh!t. That said, if Gillis' team had won the Cup in 2011 I guarantee he'd have a statue out front of Roger's Arena.

      Too early to say, depends on what the players Benning drafted go on to do for this organization. His drafting will likely be his legacy.
