    Ronald Witt says probably the best GM Illinois has ever seen.

  3. RPR says:

    I don’t think so. Let Niemmi go by refusing to pay him more than $2 M/yr in order to keep Hjalmersson (a soft defensemen) @ $3.5 M/yr. Then 10 months later signs Crawford for $2.7 M/yr. Arguably could have kept Niemmi, left Hjalmer go and have $4M/yr to spend on a replacement D-man.
    The recent 9 game losing streak would not have occurred if they had retained Niemmi. Cup winning goalies are worth keeping.
    Stan is still learning on the job I’m afraid…
