#1 Most Hated Front Office Staff Member. Chris McFarland Traded MIKKO who ended up at Avalanche 's most battled rival, who also plays in Avalanche 's Division.
.
Brad May should have never been brought to Colorado.
2. O’Reily
1. Matt Duchene
The RyJo was against Vancouver and scored the only 2 goals to win the game but was too little too late
May and Douchene are the top two for me by far! I've got to say that I like all the guys on the roster for this season.
Bringing in Barnaby felt like a betrayal to decency.
I am writing this comment as this video starts so perhaps they'll talk about it during the episode but I could swear there was an episode uploaded yesterday with a lady as a guest. I clicked on it but had to stop after about 30 seconds because something came up. When I returned it was gone. Did I hallucinate?
Yeah Val only played in the finals without a foot . Wonder why he’d have a thing with pain killers .
This should be interesting 🙂
Ryan O'Reilly is on my list of most disliked. He was a prima donna and wanted out of here.
5. Tyson Barrie
4. Tyson Jost
3. Nail Yakupov
2. Ry Jo
1. Georgiev
Duchene is treated like crap for Roy throwing him under the bus while the team was having bad seasons. When he hit his first 30 goal season during one of their worst years, Roy basically threw him under the bus and made him the bad guy for being happy. Of course he didn’t want to stay and had a bad attitude, one of the people he looked up to as a kid treated him horribly.
Georgiev I feel gets blamed unfairly, he’s not that bad though I do think Blackwood was an upgrade I think overall. The 25 season was definitely his worst, but man I think he gets blamed a lot for 2 of the three recent Colorado playoff performances.
my very first reaction to seeing the title was "Brad May" at #1 by a large margin. Martin Skoula would be on my list as well. And Miko…greedy Ba$tard.
What time? Duchene knocked us put ladt year
RyJo & Georgiev – just 2 of MacFarland’s “gigantic” screw ups. Good or bad the upcoming season will validate his tenure as a GM, and wasn’t Pierre Lacroix still the GM when the Avs acquired May?

So EJ takes Von Doom’s spot?
Most dislike GM is Chris macfarland in Avalanche history
You left out big baby McKinnon.
Tyler Arnason, could not stand that guy. So afraid out there constantly.
