This passive routine you speak of in regards to mact was because of necessity and reality. And of pc has proven that he isn't more aggressive than mact. In fact, he's followed very much the same template ( trade for an available goalie with question marks, add depth to the bottom 6, sign what defender he could, draft high etc)
And of has the luxury of only one year of passivity because the first couple years have already been suffered through by the previous regime.

And Eakins comments about improvements are exactly my point. Those who didn't understand the realities mact was faced with were too quick to blame him. And it's funny, we got mcdavid and the changes are still incremental. Only difference is because the mongs have hung their hats on "yay pc/Macts fault", they'll make excuses for pc. Which is unnecessary because it's just reality.

Get rid of old boys? Mact, Lowe, howson all still work for the oilers.
Pc has even given mact a ton of credit in helping thus far. People will always just believe what they want to

Agree with your post above - except IMO Eakins was MacT's problem- but it worked out in the end with McDavid... Here is an interesting question when looking at MacT and PC.... How many feel MacT would have landed Hamilton?

Refs have ruined this thread. This once great thread now a police state. Went from a couple thousand comments in a couple days to a couple hundred in 4.

People are getting banned for rather suspicious reasons. With nothing going on hockey wise, you'd think they would lighten up a bit to keep traffic going.




Crosby is still the best player in the league, for a little while anyways.

We can thank JBs night of derp for that.

I think Cory Schneider is a swell goaltender.

After this season they will rename the Hart trophy to the OEL hero award. Of course OEL will win it every year until three years after he retires.
