Yep, something has to give. Fans deserve better, I still think there is a deal out there that will help the team. Have the feeling MacT may not have the authority most would like to believe, if it's "I'll get back to you on that" You are in trouble.

Fwiw.. Bob Nicholson is hoping (& expected by many) to replace Rene Faisel at the next IIHF election in 2 years. So why would he go to/be hired by Edmonton for only 2 years? For sure he didn't need the job.
My best guess is he was hired to for the specific purpose of using his experience, skill and contacts and get the best available management team in place in time for the new arena.
A well though-out change in management can take time which could explain why there haven't been any trades (Ekland and others not withstanding.)
Besides that I just can't see Nicholson ever allowing himself to be associated with a loser. That would go against his entire career.

Nope. I'd rather come in here with a happy attitude in the morning and read the frustration

And do what? Handle concert bookings in the new arena? His rolodex would put MacKenzie's to shame.
