I've cheered for this team since Cujo was in net.

Honestly,.... yes

The only miss was not getting a goalie.

He added a top 4 D, top 9 F and a depth forward.

At some point the forwards paid to be top 6 players like RNH and Hyman need to show up

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Throw him into the pile.

Bring on Lou as the next out of touch dinosaur.

Holloway is gonna crack 60 points this year. Tell me how bad our talent evaluation is including Jeff Jackson, Scotty Bowman, and all our pro scouts and player development team in letting him walk.

These guys are supposed to be the professionals and not let talent like that leave on offer sheets.

Jeff Jackson and Scotty Bowman should both be fired just for that alone and same with every pro scout we have and everybody in our player development that didn’t speak up and say you can’t let him go for 2 1/2 million bucks on the offer sheet .

We won the Hyman free agent signing, but it’s more than offset by losing Holloway and losing the Jack Campbell free agent lottery

Oh yeah, let's not forget that he's just a shit human being too.

Every time I see you ‘evaluating’ the humanity of others, I feel compelled to remind the board that you are a person, a human if you will, who threatened to punch and spit on people during a f***ing pandemic. And you did it multiple times. So yeah, no one cares what you think of Bowman.

I’m sure Broberg and Holloway had those offer sheets in hand long before Bowman was hired. Not trading them earlier was on Holland and Jackson

Holland should have signed Holloway mid season but Broberg wanted out and asked for a trade mid season - and I don’t blame him given how Holland completely mismanaged him.

That said Bowman was the guy when the offer sheets hit and let Holloway walk. Every talent evaluator on the Oilers from Bowman and Jackson on down need to be deep sixed for letting him go.

The thing that is really annoying me is why this team keeps trading for injured players? and drafting players who are coming off serious surgery.

IF I am reading the comments correctly, the locks to Holland's office were changed shortly after the deadline last year and other people were making decisions. Broberg should have been traded at the draft
