Is Matthew Darsh a pure analytics guy?
I don't think so.
I mean, look at the recent hires.
I mean, hey, I'm all for analytics.
And I understand where they're coming from with it.
I get it.
I think it's a valuable, valuable tool.
But it doesn't, it's not the lead situation in your management team.
It's a huge part of it, but it can't be.
And I'm sorry, I don't buy that things are changing.
I don't buy that.
Yeah, Sonny got the job in Jersey.
I mean, and the guy in Carolina got the job and he's done a good job and he's a good man.
But he was also in their hockey operations department for a number of years before he became the GM.
so i'm just i guess i'm just saying it's it's blowing me away i i i'm shocked at the names i'm hearing for one of the biggest jobs in the nhl sorry if you disagree that's where i'm coming from yeah i mean don't disagree personally i i think what i can't get past is the idea that
It's got to be one guy that's the boss of the hockey operations side.
He's not going to be president of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
That's for damn sure.
Brendan Shanahan...
I guess, was sort of the president, but they had umpteen business people that were top corporate people, top market.
