What lessons that you learned while running Newfoundland are you hoping to bring to your next gm job Chicago?

Thanks Marns!

Honestly, the biggest thing we learned is how well we work together as a team. J and I seem to step in sync a lot of the time in our decisions, it's why when this became a real talk, both of us sort of agreed to get the band back together. We also learned how unforgiving this league can be, but how rewarding it is when it works. We brought a bad situation to something that we are proud of and is one of the best places to be in the league in Newfoundland. I think with Chicago we are way more fortunate to have the foundation in place, now it's just getting the pieces to run the machine.

Oh, I think it's fitting all the pieces we have on the team, adding players to replace aging player and doing this all under a stressed cap. We are "new" GMs so working with other teams to wheel and deal, the way J likes to, but also keeping assets is going to be the biggest challenge. How we overcome it is by being savy and lots of stressing, but that's on J to come up with
