After 40+ years of following hockey, I'm still not exactly sure what an assistant GM actually does, other than make the bureaucracy bigger - which seems to be a legitimate job function in big corporations and especially government.
So it looks like the speculated changes are starting up north. Not that we Houstonians care how you do it up north.
Is this the beginning of the end? Kind of strange how the finger is pointing everywhere but where it needs to be.
The beginning of the end of what? Where does the blame need to be?
Actually I look at it as the end of the beginning.
EXACTLY ... that is literally the end of the beginning.
