Senior Management has poor talent analysis. Nothing positive to say about any of their moves except. Kesler. That Kesler Trade was a massive steal.

Now you know what 40+ years of Leaf Trades and Free Agent moves have been like, won't even get into the Drafting.
Vancouver has to fire that whole staff and find good hockey people to rebuild it properly.

It's amazing how many goalies they have moved yet they still manage to have decent depth at the position moving Schneider, luongo, and lack is brutal but they still have demko who looks really good and miller who's more then serviceable. Lots of other clubs would love Just one starter and Vancouver has been throwing them away. Overall lots of the decisions are head scratchers but at least he had a good draft with virtanen, mccann, and demko.

That Shinkaruk move is awful, at least they draft well.
