Absolutely yeah 100%
It's hilarious how a GM lucks into a successful era and then it takes like a decade of him making "reaching into a fire and continually being burned but not figuring out why" type mistakes before people even begin to criticize him and by hilarious I mean 😖
Chiarelli, Bowman, Holland*, Murray, etc.
*at least Holland did support the pattern of drafting underrated euro prospects in later rounds which naturally was excellent but still very lucky
A handful of NHL gms will always get lucky and end up with dynasties, law of averages, it's up to us to discern who actually deserves merit at the end of the day
