Its a good hire, and we have done ok things after being screwed in the draft process a couple years in a row. Not a big fan of bringing back Tobias, if anything that will put us back in the lul of not having a chance at the #1 pick even though that whole process as broke our souls. We should've been the ones to get Wemby. Similar to the Red Wings we should've had a lot more in the draft in the past.
