Hockey Hall of Fame shits the bed

Apparently inheriting a Stanley Cup Championship roster and arguably one of the best coaches ever qualifies a failed GM for the HHOF. What a joke...

I guess I was a little surprised by this but I don't know how common that is for GM's with what he accomplished. How many did he get while at the helm? He probably could have done the turnaround quicker, some contracts he had at the end were not too good.......I can't complain too much tho definitely seen some terrible GM's in Detroit during my time. He is a good guy, pretty down to earth.

100% agreed, Matt.

Ken Holland absolutely does NOT deserve to be inducted!!! The guy is a complete hack.

Holland's player personnel decisions and contract negotiation skills were absolutely miserable.

In case anyone missed it, the Red Wings won as many playoff games as the Oilers.

Winnipeg won game 4 against Edmonton in triple OT to boot! :lol

Screw Edmonton, and screw Ken Holland.
