Rumor: Rumors & Proposals: "But it was not, an interesting day" - the narrator

[Joey Moss]

Did people even want O'Reilly or are we all just overreacting right now? The deadline is 2 weeks away.

O'Reilly has been a 3rd line quality player this year.

O'Reilly has been a 3rd line quality player this year.

Get f***ing Karlsson already. (Not specifically you Joey)

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

I’d rather see a new GM handle the TDL personally.

 

[CycloneSweep]

O’Reilly played last night so people not sitting doesn’t mean anything so maybe Karlsson is an Oiler tonight? Lol jk

 

[Oilslick941611]

Dubas not scared to go for it with getting get rid of picks

By all accounts this is his last chance to save his job and anything short of playoff success will result in no extension for him, so basically he doesn’t get this draft, so why not go all in? He has nothing to lose.

I just want Holland to do a trade that'll help us now and in the playoffs.

As usual its over reacting and FOMO

Holland shouldn’t have anything to lose either.

So you're saying someone should tell Holland to go for it or he's fired.

 

[McAsuno]

Nah, Ken Holland's gonna be too busy jerking off to his prospects and draft picks.

 

[VainGretzky]

Rangers a contender f the deadline we're adding a sniper now {Taresenko} Leaf's contender f the deadline we're adding a shutdown center now O'Reilly also other depth. Holland maybe if I hold out to the deadline I can save a draft pick

 

[oXo Cube]

As usual its over reacting and FOMO

Yep, that's exactly what it is. I'm not just afraid of missing out I'm terrified.

We're about to waste the best offensive season any player has put up since the early 90s because we've got a defense that isn't good enough and a manager that doesn't have the stones to do what it takes to fix it.

 

[McHelpus]

O'Reilly has been a 3rd line quality player this year.

The longer the Oilers wait, the more Holland gets squeezed.

 

[Markham30]

The longer the Oilers wait, the more Holland gets squeezed.

Come on man, you can’t squeeze GMs in the NHL. Everyone knows that.

 

[McAsuno]

Imagine looking at this team and think 'yah, patrick kane, tyler bertuzzzi, or shayne ghostbear' will solve all of the oiler issues!

Get f***ed, Ken Holland.

 

[PostBradMalone]

As usual its over reacting and FOMO

After about how many years does criticism of Holland stop being “overreaction”? Five? Ten? In 2040, when McDavid is being inducted into the HHOF wearing the jersey of the team he forces a trade to by next season?

 

[Paralyzer]

The longer the Oilers wait, the more Holland gets squeezed.

Does he really though? We were never rumored to be in on Tarasenko or O'Reilly, and in the end, increases our chances at the bigger fish (Kane, Karlsson, Laffety, etc.). We have 2 more weeks. People need to relax. He will have something.

 

[McAsuno]

8 years of Connor McDavid, and the Oilers are still struggling to be a cup winning team.
Excuses, my f***ing ass. The kissassers of Ken Holland do the same old shit like they did with Chiarelli.

 

[Paralyzer]

Get f***ed, Ken Holland.

Overreaction much? Rofl.

 

[bellagiobob]

I see a pattern here.

 

[McAsuno]

Overreaction much? Rofl.

Tell me its an overreaction when Kyle Dubas was able to move assets despite his team being in a cap crunch. Meanwhile Ken Holland's doing jack shit trying to use his dollar in dollar out as an excuse not to make a major move to improve this team.
Quit kissing the management's ass.

I didn't know the trade deadline passed already.

 

[McAsuno]

I didn't know the trade deadline passed already.

Yeah, that's said every year.
And then the Oilers will come up with Sam Lafferty and Shane Ghostbear because muh cap space, dollar in dollar out, and must protect the useless prospects and picks that will take longer than McDrai's contract to develop! Wooooo! Ken Holland best GM ever!

 

[Soundwave]

I didn't know the trade deadline passed already.

Don't worry, all month left for Holland to sabotage the team by keeping one of the better defenders out in California because he wants to hang onto Puljujarvi until 5 seconds are left before the deadline.

Because we totally don't need these points between now and the deadline.

Kinda like how this dude needed an 4 weeks to drag on before he realized he had to fire Tippett and even then still didn't want to do it.

Except Holland is nothing like Chia and the team improved leaps and bounds under him and had playoff sucess under holland, unlike Chia.

Everyone here is acting Holland is the worst Gm the oilers have had. He had added solid additions to this team. I contend oiler fans and worse than leaf fans when it comes annoying whining about something that hasn’t happened yet.

Holland as been a good GM for the Oilers, and despite what you read here, the Oilers are in a good position in the standings, but you’d think we are in last place reading some comments here.
