People that work in hockey don’t care about hockey fans at all. They would view this as a tremendous waste of time.

It's a waste of their time
They could be doing much better things than hanging around on a silly website with kids yelling at them for their trade proposals

Regardless of what this actual GM would post, they would get hacked and slashed on a regular basis by all of us nobody's anyway.

Also I am pretty sure @penguins_legend_Sheary is Jim Rutherford.

I bet there is some users that are active NHL employees ... It's a waste of time for GMs to post on here as they are sharing things with like 25 ppl... They could use the site to advertise something bigger though. Last but not least, NHL is the worst marketed sports league in the world, it's useless at marketing and there would be no way someone would come on here because they are clueless on how to market, where to market, when to market, and what to market.

I can guarantee you there are zero hockey operations employees on this site.

A fun hobby in his spare time.

Especially if he's retired and no longer working.


The promotion/advertising for Capfriendly on the internet/social media would receive a huge boost and traffic on the site would soar.

So many people would sign up on Capfriendly.

It might crash the site briefly but it would be up and running again in no time.

former GM's would hate this site and users would hate them because they'd roast about our every move

For what it's worth, I believe the founder of CapFriendly is actually employed by an NHL front office. One of the conditions of his employment was that CapFriendly remain a public resource.

GMs know this exists as a tool, but how in-deep they get to it is beyond me.

For any GM's reading this, hire me. I'll either call the Oilers nonstop and get you the deal you want. If you want me to work for the Oilers, I know more than 90% of your current front office, and I know very little.
