It's an attempt to throw more fuel on the fire. Modern "journalism".so what? Sounds okay to me. I'm sure he's delegating to underlings. I definitely doubt this means that Lowe or MacT have authority
It's a recent change to the team website. Chiarelli has always been listed on the Management page but now he's also on the Front Office page with a slightly different bio that mentions the Oil Kings.I mean there is potential they just changed this info today on the site. Really don't know. Never really looked. Just seems odd that no one has ever called this out, and I suspect this is going to be a story the next little bit.
I don’t listen to Gregor but I’d love to hear him respond to this question if asked by one of his callers.Gregor has written 2 pretty scathing articles of the Oilers lately (and I don't disagree with him or that they should be free from scorn).
But when given a chance to ask a question at the Nicholson presser, Gregor asks a question about "the fan experience at Rogers Place".
Hard hitting journalism.
He doesn't take callers. (or very, very, very rarely does anyways).I don’t listen to Gregor but I’d love to hear him respond to this question if asked by one of his callers.
This is exactly what I was thinking when posting yesterday. Guy had a chance to call this out but instead writes an article and pretends that this is brand new news that has just been released.Gregor has written 2 pretty scathing articles of the Oilers lately (and I don't disagree with him or that they should be free from scorn).

Regarding the avatar, did you lose a bet?Maybe this means that we're finally kicking MacT to the curb or at least to the basement while he looks for his stapler. The AHL clearly needs an overhaul.
I frankly don't understand. How do the Oil Kings fall under his umbrella of responsibilities? How do they affect the Oilers?
I hate the leaders of this organization. So confusing and opaque, I just can't put logic to some of their comments and a whole bunch of their actions.
I supported Gregor for the first article he wrote because I suspected something like that would be going on and I thought it needed to be talked about. I find the second article puzzling. He pretty much answers the question of why Chiarelli is the only GM evaluating himself in the article and then criticizes the team for not giving him enough help. I’m not sure how he writes that days after complaining those above him are meddling. Are they meddling or does he need help?
Lol, you’re right. All those guys sound the same to me.Psst. The meddling article was written by Spector.

Or the media has finally decided to point the finger of blame where it actually belongs. Something posters here have been chiding them for not doing for years. This is one of if not the most poorly run organizations in the league if not in all pro sports. I'm grateful that someone has decided to shine a light into the darkness. Hopefully he doesn't get run out of town or silenced for it. Thankfully both his show and the radio station are free from the influence of the OEG and their information minister.
If he would have been doing that he would have asked the questions when he had the chance instead of tossing softballs. Now he's sitting at his keyboard, with almost no factual knowledge, making a whole ton of assumptions, and sounds like an upset child. This isn't reporting, it's speculating, and it's weaksauce.
Daryl Katz doesn't do press conferences. He let's dumb asses like Lowe and Mact make fools of themselves and the organization not to mention the city instead.
How anyone defends these clowns anymore is beyond me. Yes he should have been doing it sooner buy later is better than never. Or would you prefer he goes back to ignoring the elephant in the room?
This is what people here have been asking for. For years. Now that some people are speaking up about it they are attacked.
Its quite sad actually.
