So you let him sign Koskinen to that contract and fire him 36-48 hours later?!

They need to fire a lot more people than just Chiarelli.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

sounds good, until you realize the group of idiots responsible for replacing him

Well they have form, they traded for Spooner, and then swapped coaches.

 

[Gravity]

Step 1) Fire Chiarelli and hire Quenneville at the end of the season.

 

[Woodrow]

Way too late. They also need a time machine to undo all the damage Chiapet has done.

One of those idiots will step in as GM too.

 

[Kranix]

The three stooges have convened a meeting on what to do with Shemp.

 

[Ainec]

Jack Eichel to be named GM of the Oilers

Chiarelli hasn't been making the decisions on his own lately. One of the inept members of the OBC will probably take over, at least temporarily.

Should have been done after last season ended

 

[koyvoo]

C’mon, give him another 4 yrs or so.

 

[LT]

Yesc because Chiarelli is the real problem with this team. Not Lowe, or MacTavish, or anyone else. Chiarelli.

What an embarrassment.

 

[The Burdened]

should bring in Hextall

he'll have the Oilers ready by the time McDavid is 30

 

[treple13]

Change is coming, meaning Chia has been promoted

What's a new GM going to do?

Precious few assets to trade. No cap space, a pretty bare prospect cupboard. If you bring in a new GM on a intern basis and tell him he has to make the playoffs, he'll have to trade from what there is of a core and sacrifice the future.

Best move would be to leave Chia til the end of the year, see what you can sell at the deadline for space and draft picks or prospects and then make a move in the off season.

I'm pretty sure that an experienced coach like Q wouldn't have much interest in coaching that roster.

The committee decision making started happening mid-season. Most of the moves were Chiarelli's

yep. At least it'll feel good that someone as incompetent and useless as Chiarelli will be out of your organization. one step in the right direction

 

[EhlersChin]

Harrison should get a sniff at the GM spot.

 

[Lukin1978]

Jack Eichel to be named GM of the Oilers

Cam Talbot

Damage already long done unfortunately.
