It's clear that the Philadelphia fanbase is not happy with GM Chuck Fletcher right now. He hasn't made any big moves this offseason, he is losing the fanbase quicker than quicksand. He just does not seem to be getting the job done. So, if he would happen to be fired, let's take a look at some possible candidates for his spot.
Eric Tulsky

Cammi Granato
The NHL is overdue for a female general manager, and Cammi Granato is one prominent candidate who could smash through the glass ceiling. Granato was named the NHL's second-ever female scout when she joined the Seattle Kraken organization back in 2019.

Henrik and/or Daniel Sedin
It's probably too soon to give Henrik and Daniel Sedin control of an organization, or is it? They already have more NHL front office experience than most. Two players, working alongside Danny Briere- Ya never know.
