Mac has been better than I had hoped. But he hasn't been flawless. I thought he should have exposed MoJo and not Schmidt to the Expansion Draft. But he recovered nicely with the Kempny find at the trade deadline. Other moves at the trade deadline - from Glencross to Shattenkirk - bombed, so he needs to improve there. But unlike McPhee, he hasn't made a 'brain dead' move like moving Forsberg out for Erat and Latta (as much as I enjoyed Latta). Still, as much as Mac loves Reirden (obviously), he better hope - as we all must - that Todd is ready to make the big step up as the HC. My other fave team in D.C. that hits failed to move on from their incumbent HC for the up and comer (Sean McVay). So, if Reirden rocks it, we will all be thrilled and singing Mac's praises.
