Hey fellas was planning to do another full BBKL awards but things have been pretty full on lately so it got put on the backburner.
Thought it would be good to do GM of the year atleast unless someone else wants to take on awards and the interest is there.
At any rate public or pm top 3 nominations and i will make a ballot for voting.
Cheers

Steve has gotta be the top GM here, he's not only killing it with his own team but he's loading Paul up as well

I think will pulled off one of the better deals of the year: acquiring Crosby in a pretty good deal. He also managed to upgrade his goaltending from the Carolina system to corey schneider, and identify some top defensive prospects who came into their own: ghostisbehere and parayko. Also, he made a nice mid 1st selection in kyle connor that seems to be working out.
I think he made some bad missteps in his first year, but some really quality steps this year.

I guess it's an argument for who improved their teams "value" vs. performance the most. There's also a bias (naturally) in this for more activity, as you could have a GM who smartly sat on assets ... we'll never know the deals many of us did NOT make.
I'll have to think on my picks of the 3 top GMs

I have a busy day and will leave for the weekend tomorrow morning so won't have the time to think about a top 3, but would be surprised if Steve doesn't win it after he got the title while getting his roster younger in the process...
