You're probably right. They can't make a habit out of firing GM's this quickly, so they are going to have to live with the new GM for quite awhile, no matter how he succeeds in sorting this mess out.
And the mess is really a mess. It's so bad that it's hard to bring good players in, and the best players we have seem quite open about considering playing elsewhere. If it goes on like this, it becomes a forced, uncontrolled rebuild as proven players won't come here, and the ones we have leave as soon as they can. Then we would be forced to play with the unproven players in the prospect pool, and any outcast desperate enough to take the Wild as his last chance to make it in the NHL. And we don't even have McDavid, so we wouldn't have that consolation to take us through the mayhem.
Which makes me think that the next GM must be someone with a lot of respect. The name must counteract the deserved disrespect we currently suffer from.
