Traded: 98th overall, 2000 draft (Jonas Ronnqvist), 264th overall, 2000 draft (Dmitri Altarev) Also, a series of random signings for depth have been condensed into single notes rather than looking at each individually. I have excluded the expansion draft for obvious reasons, but the trades surrounding it are noted. The fact that Robert Kron currently holds the first-line spot doesn't mean that moving him for a good return should be delayed or prevented simply because he has some amount of token importance to an expansion team.īut now, without further ado, it begins.a look at every transaction of the Doug MacLean era. To anyone else, it's the loss of a fourth-liner. If Robert Kron were traded in October of 2000, it would represent the loss of the Jackets' first-line center. It's also important to note that, with the makeup of the average expansion team roster, there should be zero consideration given to where exactly a player is currently slotted. Any one of these represents a clear path to take. It would also be another thing to trade those picks and prospects to have a greater shot at early success, knowing that a later collapse is a foregone conclusion. It also would have been one thing to draft them, sign them, and miss out on those picks but have a better chance of early success. It would have been entirely possible to draft nothing but pending UFAs, let them all walk, and collect the compensatory picks. When building an expansion team, it is pretty much universally recognized that the team is going to struggle off the bat, and the few that don't usually have a collapse that results from having done things in reverse.

After 15 years with Redwood and three children later, Doug resigned from Redwood to start MacLean Machinery Network out of Tucker, GA. There he and his partners specialized in refurbishing and selling pre-owned Amada equipment. He left Amada in Atlanta to join Redwood International Machinery in Illinois as a partner and started a refurbishing program. There was lots of used equipment but not much quality equipment. By 1996 Doug had recognized a void in the industry. His technical service knowledge and interpersonal skills quickly immersed him in the southeastern manufacturing community.
