Only thing i'd argue is that if he was confident in Martin, then why let him go when he was competing for a playoff spot?

Was Muller's "style" so problematic that it outweighed the other obvious benefits of keeping him in the organization/having him work with/coach our farm team?
I find that hard to believe.
Muller didn't simply "pursue his own interest", he was left dangling in the wind and had no choice but to move on.
the obvious problem is that people are what make organizations great, and great organizations understand how to identify, develop & most importantly retain, great people.
Gauthier's misguided approach cost us several times in his brief tenure, and this is just another example of it.
