Thanos — Bob Murray
You cannot have the protagonists without the antagonist, and while Bob Murray isn’t exactly the “bad guy” of the 2018-19 season, he definitely aided and abetted in Randy Carlyle‘s reign of terror. However, due to the power Murray has as the Anaheim Ducks General Manager, and eventually interim head coach, he fits the persona of Thanos much better than Randy Carlyle ever could.

First of all, he made us suffer through the reign of Randy Carlyle. That is his first offense. Thanos caused a lot of suffering in the MCU, and he used his “minions” who ended up causing almost as much damage as he did.
Secondly, Bob Murray has to power to get rid of any player with just the snap of his fingers. A perfect example was the Andrew Cogliano trade that happened in January. He made a statement the night before and stayed true to his promise that change was coming and traded Cogliano the next day. While the Cogliano trade is understandable and he seems to be thriving much more in Dallas, he was a fan favorite and his absence has caused a lot of heartache throughout Ducks Nation.
Lastly, and I know this is a stretch, but Bob Murray just looks the part. If you take away his sweater vests, shave off what little hair he has left on his head, and give him a little bit of body paint, he could pull it off.
