This is where I get my "so the fuck what?" attitude regarding people talking about the Nerd leaving.
I don't think he's done the type of job to worry about losing at this point. I consider the Tavares signing a whiff, not a terrible one, John has been fine but obviously not the leader we needed and obviously not worth the 11 million in cap space to date. His best players 1-5 on his roster were all inherited. His goaltending choices have been a mix of ugly, hit & miss. I want to give him credit on the blueline for Muzzin before he died, Brodie and now McCabe. Those are varying levels of lovely to have but then I have to look at his failure to promote playing Sandin & Lilly, and his deep affection for the Holl's, Bogo's, Schenn's, etc.
I just don't think he's done a good job at what he was supposed to be smarter than everyone else at. If Bunting was from Burnaby instead of Scarborough, his best dumpster dive by a whole fucking lot would have never signed here.
