Martin Madden.
Current Director of Amateur Scouting for the Ducks.
Right there, the title in itself makes Eminem win the day for me (so do the nicknames/avatars).
THE most important M.O. for the next 5 years is to build a core through the draft. Who better than M&M?

I might be in the minority but I'd honestly prefer the media calling the shots over the clown(s) who's been doing it the past 20 years.

Re: Who Do U Want to See as Next GM of the Nucks?
Yep, there are a lot of boxes to tick when it comes to a GM's role. I get that.
For me, only a few matter when it comes to the next 5 years. I don't give a shit if new GM gets some of the boxes wrong as long as he gets the priority ones 100% right. He needs to build a contending core with virtually nothing to start with, so D&D and finding creative ways to manufacture assets are what matter most. The rest won't mean shit if he can't achieve that.
Only a couple of the guys mentioned so far have a history for doing this, but are ones fans are hardly enamored with including the one we might've run out of town yesterday (to which I applaud). So, if it's not a failed retread, it's going to have to be someone with no inexperience. Why not the one who had a hand in putting together one of the nicest looking young cores in the League. Scouting decisions are going to be critical.

Would still like to see RJ promoted to the big club somewhere, if not THE guy, perhaps AGM or something. I just have a feeling there might be something there and this guy deserves a chance at something more, hate to let him get away elsewhere.
Plus the franchise could badly use some integrity to help scrape off the residual slime from the past regime.
