He is consistently chosen, year after year, to play a leadership role with Hockey Canada. But when it comes down to it, this is Craig MacTavish’s team. He is the GM. He makes the calls, and he is accountable for building a team that can compete for the Stanley Cup -- year in and year out for years to come.

That's the big news.

I hate this team.

 

[GMofOilers]

My god sad.

What a ****ing gongshow this is. More of the same undying platitudes.

What a depressing letter to read on a Monday.

Why even bother?

 

[SeriousBusiness]

Was anyone else hoping for a pair of MacT/Katz statues to be erected beside Wayne's?

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

Ill assume a new martini recipe is being released.

Mact; I call it the MacTavish..
Press; How does this have to do with hockey?
MacT; try it...
*drinks and then chokes on own blood*

 

[dustrock]

lol this franchise and Stauffer.

 

[syz]

So the news is that Kevin Lowe is safe?

That's what I don't get. Why bother? All it does is cement further in everyone's mind how useless everyone in the organization is. It doesn't change opinion for the better for anyone at all. What a waste of Katz' time.

Dear Leader has spoken and Dear Leader says all is good in the capital.

 

[bloggerfanthe*]

Stauffer doing PR for the Oilers again. Shouldn't be surprised.

 

[doulos]

So the news is that Kevin Lowe is safe?

That's the worst part of it all. Not that MacTavish is safe, but that Kevin Lowe is safe. That's so depressing. He's destroyed this team that I love and it's the laughing stock of professional sports. Really, this makes me question if I can be bothered any longer.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

Kevin Lowe is safe, and will always be safe.

Quit bugging Lowe?

 

[alphahelix]

I wish we would just let Perron be player-coach. He knows how to play responsible hockey. Unfortunately its being beaten out of him by the opposition.

 

[Spawn]

Is it really a surprise that the owner of this team tries to excuse this garbage team?

 

[sync]

ITS ALL GOOD

 

[ohheyhemsky]

Can this please be the new catalyst for even more Kevin Lowe hate?

Oh, this is actually going to convince a lot of "tier 1" fans to step back from the ledge?

Nevermind...

 

[StoveTopStauffer]

The letter reads as a combination of comments made by other parts of management throughout the organization over the last year. lol.

 

[MCDAVIDISH]

So this dumb letter is breaking news? **** Stauffer. They'd be better off not writing a letter at all, no way this group should be defended.

 

[CornKicker]

when i read this i treat it like a coworker that is lying to my face and i know he is. Do i just laugh and nod or do i call out the complete BS that keeps getting fed to us?

basically - nothing is going to change, we know we suck, but please be here when i get the new arena i need the dollars.


PS Mr Katz - you have already ***** the province to get yourself a new arena, how about passing some of that back in the form of an actually competitive hockey team?

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

I read up to "oilers fans everywhere" and then skimmed down to "Daryl Katz"

You suck, we get it Daryl. Go comb your hair on your drug yacht and let everyone resent you in peace.
