It seems like you just want to concentrate on everything negative.
MG has made mistakes, though many of them didn't look like they would be mistakes at the time. He has also done a lot of good things for this franchise as well.

I think he made a lot of mistakes post cup run to change playing styles. I was fine with the Ballard Grabner trade at the time as I pointed out but Grabner's loss was softened by having Raymond and Cody Hodgson. CoHo being traded magnified the fact that we do not have another group of secondary and young scorers.
Garrison replacing Salo came after the cup run.
