Sean Maloughney: Oilers Looking Prepared To Double Down On Mistakes Of The Past

Stop saying horrible things; my poor heart can't take it!

Write more about how they're definitely hiring Hunter. Even if it's all a lie, just do it! Please!

I mean look, if you want to trade us McDavid, fine. We know how to take care of franchise centers.

McDavid will be asking for a trade by december 2019 when the oilers have been eliminated from the playoffs.

Gonna have to hope and pray for the lesser of the possible evils: Hunter/Gretzky/Burke combo. Ideally the team could replace Gretzky with Verbeek, but I know that's likely asking too much.

Honestly, this team without the myriad pro scouting failures and a slightly more UFA gun-shy GM isn't in half as deep a hole as now.

This keeps up im gonna start cheering for the kraken.

Once you get a GM lol...You guys have any interest in pick 18/19 and pick 28/31 (if Dallas beats StL) for pick 8? We’ll sweeten it with a second and one of Vesey/Namestnikov/Pionk

Trade Lucic our 8th for Vancouver's 10th. Looks like Lucic wouldn’t mind playing there

I'd rather you took on Russell's remaining contract instead of the roster player. However, I'd be open to it for Vesey or Pionk. If I could get both in the deal, I'd try for that too.

Hunter runs the show
Gretzky sticks to amateur scouting
Burke (Sean) handles the pro scouting

Mbone and R80 for poho/gm

I’ll sign the papers with both players, no Russel tho

My thinking is, you may need or want quantity over quality in edm. Having the two all world guys already I think it makes some sense. We want Caufield at 8

I’ll fire everyone on my first day

Holland just won’t go away. We know this feeling. Enjoy.

He isn’t an Oiler and I’m already sick of him

Pretty sure Holland rumors are getting hotter and hotter with more reputable sources citing them. Lebrun up in it.

The media don’t even have a clue anymore....one reports that McCrimmon interviewed for the job and another says he was never given permission to do so (based on his promotion that makes sense)

Let keith run the show. Hes done great work rebuilding the farm. I think its his time. Lets all stay positive for a change.

Keith does not deserve this job. Give it to Hunter or Holland and be done with it.

Just hire Holland already. He can be your goaltending coach. He was an NHL goaltender.

Wilfred Desjardins is free to coach the Oil. Not sure why Mike Gillis hasn’t been approached by Nicholson.

Something has to give in Edmonton before all the players ask to be traded.

Thats what needs to happen.

Sure youd be a better pro scout than any of the other retards in that department.
