Benning did make some odd decisions, bit agree on two fronts, he was already doomed. The owners didn't want a rebuild, and Covid creating flat lined cap. 
 

As you rightly say 'Do you want to be a HM or not...'

 

Reallity is that very few GMs and coaches gets to see the whole process through, although Aquilinis did give Benning a lot of rope...

 

If it had worked out with JV on OJ we would likely had been further ahead in our process, but its a game of what ifs... nobody knows what would have happened. 
 

Now we are clearly running with Quinn, Miller, Demko and Petey (if he extends). 
 

This is the core now. Its then up to management to find all the conplimentary pieces through drafts or screwed dealing..

And so far so good for PA, despite the team laying an egg yesterday. 
Still think there's a couple of missing pieces, but things take time... happy with progress so far. 

100%. I really like Rutherford, Allvin, et al. and especially the coaching staff. Like... if anyone can get this group to the promise land, it's definitely them.

 

Fingers crossed Lekkerimaki and Willander are ready sooner rather than later. And Podkolzin too for that matter. They're gonna need them.
