I remember listening to Stauffer the day after the Nyland fiasco years ago and he little had no idea what to say.

the only thing I can compare his show that day is Charlie Brown trying to kick a ball and Lucy pulling it away
Pretty sure that was before Stauffer was an Oiler employee. When he was on Total Sports I remember him being very critical of the Oilers. Often ripping into their refusal to give young guys like Schremp a chance.

All I remember was him going on and on about how great of a fit Nylander would be and other things and then his next show he was so confused
 
It makes sense in both respects, because his focus is working for the team, so he likely doesn't make as many contacts because he's providing different entertainment and he would have knowledge of the signings because of proximity. I do suspect he has an idea who the team might be looking at.
I respectfully disagree. He doesn’t even know line changes that will happen - and he’s friends with Knoblauch. I don’t think the management team leak anything outside the management team unlike prior regimes. Now- if they trade for Rantanen - then I will concede…;)

It was. I think those were the EIG days and he is very close to the Nichols family (like he loves to mention on his show almost daily)
 
If Stu gets traded it would be like Christmas for me. Gibson with pikard as back up please. lol. Will never happen but I can dream.

Sarcasm my man lol

I will agree with my pundits. We lost for 2 reasons

Skinner is just an overall Sieve.

Our top stars did not produce when it mattered the most. They carry the water here though, but I can agree with that as well.

I trust our top guys producing consistently over Swiss Cheese randomly improving his atrocious playoff stats. Big boy shave a great track record

Big boy in net..Not so much
If Mcdavid, draisaitl (esp draisaitl if he can stay healthy the entire playoffs) and the goaltending can actually hold up, the cup should be very possible this year. Remember skinner was garbage and draisaitl couldn’t do anything the last few rounds last year. The last few playoffs actually. Really bad luck staying healthy.
