Stan Bowman linked to Edmonton oilers GM job

[Esq]

The only thing Stan did well was manage the cap. Otherwise, he was pretty meh.

 

[ManofSteel55]

Would have rather kept Holland...

 

[IslesNorway]

How do these people even get mentioned for jobs like this after what happened?

 

[Siidekik]

 

[Gil Gunderson]

I don’t know how to evaluate him as a GM. He walked into a built team on the upswing in a major market. It would have been hard to f*** it up.

 

[Sweetpotato]

Don't buy this for a second, doesn't match Jackson's MO of potential hires. This screams someone feeding media info to put their name or a friend's out there.

 

[Sniper99]

Not buyin this. A lot of suckers are though.

 

[TheNumber4]

Bettman hasn’t even decided if Bowman is back.

 

[Chips]

This is one of those things where I’d happily bet so much money it won’t happen, then lose


I really doubt it, but I could also kind of see it and it could get funny lol.

 

[Bizzare]

Bettman hasn’t even decided if Bowman is back.

Now they have, can’t wait for the Oilers to embarrass themselves again.

Not buyin this. A lot of suckers are though.

Here it comes!!

Well everytime the Oilers get "embarassed" by an addition it ends up pretty good for the Oil. So like who gives a shit really what the haters think. They'd hate regardless of what the Oil do.

Slimey League Management gets slimier.....

 

[ozhenson]

Ive been able to get behind controversial pickups the Oil have had in the past, but they were part of the team, so they were able to endear themselves to me in a much more direct way. If this ish happens, I give up(that said, I REALLY hope its all just BS clickbait). Hopefully theres a less dysfunctional team out there that will take a new fan.

Match made in heaven frankly

 

[Dicky113]

Hart and Foote to Edmonton !!!

 

[deytookerjaabs]

Edmonton, Stanley,

Seth Jones is available, don't be afraid to pick up the phone.

 

[TheDoldrums]

Gross. Bowman was complicit in allowing Aldrich to move on and assault a minor AFTER all the Blackhawks stuff. Can't believe a team would have interest in him.

Oh he's also a bad GM who left the Blackhawks a mess on the ice...

 

[Sniper99]

That's gotta be all she wrote for McDavid in EDM, if Stan Bowman gets hired,

Yeah yeah yeah you guys say dumb shit like this for 8 years now. "You can tell mcDave was cringing when he found out he was goin to Edmonton" "that look on McDavids face you can tell he wants to leave "deadmonton"" you guys are pathetic. Yiu dont know what hes thinking or what hes gonna do. Seek help

Well everytime the Oilers get "embarassed" by an addition it ends up pretty good for the Oil. So like who gives a shit really what the haters think. They'd hate regardless of what the Oil do.

f*** em

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

As if we didn't already have enough reasons to hate the Oilers...

 

[thaman8765678]

I mean, this is right on character for the Oilers organization.

There is a reason most people don't like the Oilers, and this is one of the main ones.

 

[tabness]

"play la bamba" gonna change to this lol

 

[barkovcanfinnish]

Bowman is a dogshit GM. The Kyle Beach stuff is added diarrhea on a shit cake.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

 

[MilkofthePoppy]

Stan Bowman would be an excellent GM for the Oilers.

 

[x Tame Impala]

Beach issues aside, Bowman made very few good decisions from the 2015 offseason until when he was let go. Bad roster decisions, bad drafting, bad coaching hire, and just an overall flawed methodology of the correct way to build a team once the dynasty core aged out.

I wouldn’t be too excited as an Oiler fan from a pure hockey perspective as I’m sure they’re mostly not thrilled with his hiring from the scandal either
