Agreed. Benning didn't do great but he left the team in a better position than when he found it, unlike the incompetent imbecile he replaced. Benning will find another job as an AGM eventually, while no one in their right mind would hire Gillis for any hockey related position. Benning may have struggled with some cap decisions but he understands the sport, while Gillis simply was not qualified for any role that required player evaluation.
