The Shocking Truth Behind the NHL’s Longest-Tenured Worst GM Revealed
8. Max McNab, Capitals
Hired: December 1975
Fired: November 1981
In between: A whole lot of losing. Which was to be expected, given that McNab took over an expansion team that had one full season under its belt, that being arguably the worst any team has ever had. Still, in five seasons at the helm, McNab’s Caps never finished with more than 70 points.
Signature move: He had some solid draft success, as you might expect given all the Capitals’ high picks. His best was picking future 700-goal man Mike Gartner fourth overall in 1979.
