What is your confidence level in Ron Hextall and the Penguins front office?

Pittsburgh Penguins general manager Ron Hextall is known for two things: Being extremely patient, and building a wall around any information getting out of his offices about his plans for his team. He seems to hate dealing with the media, doesn’t like talking, doesn’t tip his hand, and doesn’t like to make knee-jerk reaction moves. He is the antithesis of the Penguins’ previous general manager in almost every possible way. You only need to look at his transaction history from Philadelphia (and now Pittsburgh) and how rarely you actually hear him speak (or read quotes from him) to know how true all of that is.
