oh totally.

i think most of us can agree that another bottom feeder finish and this rebuild/core is pretty fuked.

i don't see us moving hall under any realistic circumstance.
same goes for nurse and nuge.

Thankfully its game 3 but something needs to happen or yes this rebuild will be a total bust then Hall and Nuge and Nurse will all want out because who wants to be part of the bad news bears year after year?

Well that was fun

This team more than any other (that I can see on local television) have the biggest tendancy to lose 4 in a row then go on a 4-5 game winning streak. Really weird.

When they're confident they're really confident.

When they're not. They're really not.

Im praying for you guys this year though. The whole western canadian team playing like shyt is really getting old.

And It makes my team look worse cause I was in your tiny division for so long

heres the kicker;

so we decide to trade one of our valuable pieces that aren't the true cornerstones.

who gives us fair value at this point for yaks, schultz or ebs? its a blatant panic move.

i can see him being the first guy looking for the door

and when is that? Evander Kane wants out of WPG and he's played a year longer than Hall.

does Hall want out by may when they're already golfing, again?

Okay boys I'm pissed off and feel like posting some derp so here goes.

Trade Taylor Hall and Justin Schultz for Shea Weber

Trade Jordan Eberle and Jeff Petry for Joe Thornton.

- Jeropotato

And Scrivens for Carey Price

It doesn't matter who we play at forward. Our defense gives up way to many grade A chances

Well of course and clearly teams know this as well...as I said earlier MacT will have to pay a kings ransom for talent no matter what because every team knows they can bend us over the table and all we can do is say "yes sir ill take another"

My question is, do you think the boys are already blocking out Eakins? I personally dont think so. But what more does he have to do to get elite players to frequently play like elite players.

Young team young coach.

Hence why they're playing this way. We can only speculate. I dont think anyone really knows the answer on how to fix the the oilers. Its terrible.

Well we get the usual derpy suggestions but not much adds up. It's crazy. No idea what Mac T should do. Would a Taylor Hall trade bring us enough to make us competitive?

I think of all the assets you have he should be the last option. Eb, RNH, Yak all have value.

Question is, whats there value?

And I ask you that Honestly without hoping for some sort of RNH and 1 1st for ovechkin back.

The team needs stability IMHO and that can only come with leader ship and exprience. And Ference is not the guy for that job.

If you get ridd of your best player (Hall) you are commiting youself to rebuilding atleast another 2-3 years.

IMHO

i don't.

i think Eakins is desperately looking for the fix and overthinking things abit.

as ive said a million times, this franchise has much deeper problems than just the coach. and do i think petry would've made a huge difference? hells no. but nonetheless, wtf are u thinking scratching him?

how many times am i gonna see that open man out front?? like over and over and over. how can Eakins NOT be teaching that? of course he is. there's something fundamentally wrong here. and its a mixture of system and an inept roster.

maybe it is a bold move that needs to happen. its gotta be something. confidence from some success will go so far imo. but we cant get over that hump, so its this never ending losing. and attracting impact guys is so tough.
mact is doing what he can i think.

fuk. i really don't know
