Burn it down???
- Ihatebrianburke


i've been saying burn it down since summer. I hate to say it...but as piss poor as edmonton has been, after adding (if you're lucky) eichel / or mcjesus..you guys will be set up real nice. I'd move eberle and yak for positional needs.

RNH, Mcdavid/eichel - centre

drasitil (moves to wing) hall - wing

nurse, (return for eberle), (return for yak) - defense

then get yourselves a frickin goalie.

wasn't just referring to you..but to hear 'keep polak, winnik, santo' etc...come on. It should be a full tear down with our cap and overall situation.

meh, Polak has been better in 40 games than Gunner in 5 years.

At least with the naked eye.

Guy is solid on the back end. Brings it every night from the games I have watched.

actually i was on here or there even after wins but i travel for work. ..like i said the other night, i'll be gone for a few weeks starting sunday.

plus i built up enough enemies in the summer telling all you guys we'd be a bottom 5 team this year....i got death threats so had to lay low. now you all seem to be saying what i was saying.

1 goal, 2 apples and a -2 in the past 10 games is life??

I would trade Eberle but not Yakupov right now. Not a good enough return.

like i said i travel...i'll be gone until late feb after sunday so rest easy.

on a sidenote, yes i feel vindicated for saying bottom 5 all summer. But i don't rub it in like you guys say. I don't name call or use idiotic things like to knock other ppl's opinions.

I did go back the other night and revisit some summer threads. Some of the stuff ppl said when i was preaching bottom 5 and rebuilding was hillarious. "I know nothing"..."we added depth"..."clark is clueless"..."we're a playoff team with boston getting weaker etc. and detroit is done"....it's a real hoot. I'm just a realist and ppl don't like it...there's no excuse for this garbage franchise anymore.

Streit looked like he was diminishing and on the wrong side of his career that last year with us I didn't blame Snow for not resigning him. He proved that theory wrong and I'm happy for the guy. He was a great player for us.

Yakupov has not really panned out. If I were a GM I would be hesitant to give anything up for him. He seems like he would also be bad in the locker room. I would way rather have Crosby or Toews than Yakupov.

meh, I think we had a team that could be top 6 and a playoff team...too much outside poop going on...RC on the hotseat right from day 1...not a good way to run a franchise. IMO

I agree we need to gut the core...no way a NHL team trades all 20 - we will keep some for sure.

Kessel/Phaneuf/Bozak/Gardiner/Franson/Reimer/Lupul have to go IMO
