How are the Italian sausages in Edmonton

 

[Johnny Concussion]

So who do we think Babs will target first? RNH?

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Hitchcock
Tippett
Woodcroft
Knobaluch
Babcock

lol

 

[EdJovanovski]

McDavis is finished, cooked like a DOG

 

[TrufleShufle]

Thank you thank you thank you for starting a new thread when its official.

Stopped paying attention to the old one and its so refreshing to start from when its official instead of rifling through pages trying to find it. Cleaner too.

Start doing this with trades please....

 

[Stealth JD]

I’m sure this will work out well for them and Connor will be anxious to extend once his two year contract is up.

 

[EpochLink]

Time has proven that Holland and Babcock and the entire organization were being completely carried by Lidstrom.

Lidstrom was the stallworth on those Detroit teams, they haven’t had that since he retired.

I appreciate they stick with a theme.

 

[KniesMadeBradyCry]

This offseason is getting better every day. Every day the oilers are making a terrible signing, with this one being the worst yet. I’m excited to see what’s coming!

 

[A1LeafNation]

Does he make it past training camp this time?

 

[Jag68Sid87]

Ooooof.

 

[Steelhawks80]

This just looks bad for the game, never mind the Oilers and the NHL.

 

[Zerotonine]

Rancid franchise does more rancid bullshit. Shocking.

What quenville did was 10x worse then Babcock every day of the week

I see what you're saying... all 2 syllables.

The #Oilers have named Mike Babcock as Head Coach.

Hide your phones. Clear the cache, delete search history, delete photos and text messages, delete contacts, reset to factory settings. Oh hell just throw your phone in the river or a landfill just to be extra safe.

 

[Jerzey Devil]

Maybe Torts can be an assistant coach

 

[koivalev]

Just hard to believe that Katz would jeopardize the mental health of his employees.

 

[KniesMadeBradyCry]

Rancid franchise does more rancid bullshit. Shocking.

Worst franchise in professional sports gets worse

Yes I was. f*** the entire Chicago group. f*** Stan Bowman. f*** Toews and Kane. f*** Quenneville too.

 

[Romang67]

But why though.

It is a good week to be a scumbag, it seems.

Finally, my time to shine.

 

[Shrimper]

So whose getting McDavid in free agency then?

 

[eojsmada]

Let's see how he does without half of his team being HOF'ers. And I sure hope he tries to push his puck possession style on McDavid...cause that'll age well.

 

[YMCMBYOLO]

If Quenneville can coach so can Babcock.
