I want to know what he things about the Quest For Balance.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Hope he says something and it isn't our usual end of season. "We played good I like it we will slowly improve blah blah"

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

Theme of every end-of-season presser: patience

 

[Drivesaitl]

If its scheduled for 11am today it means it will be 3.58 Newfoundland time zone on Saturday.

Holland; "We have all these forwards, theres a price you have to pay for a good D"


Watch there be not one comment or question on the Kassian contract or the nothing TDL moves.

 

[MoontoScott]

I like Holland but I think the best thing for him to do is play it straight with fans.

"We are very disappointed with the efforts of many of our players in the series with Chicago. I can offer you no excuse as to why this happened."

A bit of honesty goes a long way with people.

Not gonna watch, I’ll wait to get the reader’s digest version from Rishaug’s twitter.

“We don’t have any words and we know you don’t want to hear them. We understand your anger, your frustration, your sadness. Everything you’re feeling – we get it. This isn’t the ending we imagined, and certainly not the one we wanted. Thank you for being there the entire way.”

 

[Mr Positive]

He will say there will be changes but he'd be stupid to be specific.

A call for patience would be a good thing too. We are definitely not near needing to blow it up

Completely agree but in today's politically correct NHL it won't happen.

I don't know that any GM really knows how things are going to play out for them next year. Yes they all have wants, but with a flat cap it might be a lot harder to find those wants.

He'll say that too. That's why I say there will be changes but will be vague about it. It might end up being some minor things. But he will try something major imo

 

[CycloneSweep]

I think it's not happening. Tweets gone.

 

[sportsfan944804]

Like clockwork, the Youtube stream is gone. I'm sure it's another postponing to another week. Typical Oilers.

Let me start by saying, I don’t think there is any type of grand conspiracy to rig the draft but I’m interested to know exactly how that machine works.

I was watching a slowed down version of the lottery and the Rangers ball is in the funnel part of the hopper and it gets knocked out one of the side openings by the Leafs ball which subsequently takes its place and gets a bump for another ball sending it up right into the tube and as it’s falling the Rangers ball gets sucked back in and slips right past it and up into the tube.

It’s hilarious how incredibly close it was to being the Leafs ball. If that suction is activated a quarter second earlier it’s probably the Leafs ball going up.

WHAT AREAS???? except PP and PK, everything took a step back
goaltending was below average at best
defense was shambles
offence was a 2 man show
5v5 was horrid
depth was horrid
coaching was questionable

Well there are 4 gm's that were hired in 2020 as well as 3 in 2019. So there should be some newer GM's that are ready to make a change.

That doesn't even include teams like WPG, TOR, PIT, NSH, that were just eliminated that probably want to make changes to their lineups as well.

I think he means with the team play in the season, which is true.

Over the course of the year the team was way better than expectations. Playoffs not so much

What a joke. All sites, Youtube, Twitter, Oilers home site, all dropped the live press conference and instead we get to read tweets from the reporters.

f*** off Oilers.

Can't run a team, can't show up for playoffs, can't even handle a presser

Yeah this is brutal. What a fail

Cant run a 50-50. Cant get out of its own way.
