I see the board is still ready to burn down the village. Why are we shocked by the last few games? The team is poorly built and I do not think any of us really know how to fix it. We have had fire GM threads for 22 years now
Lowe
Tambelllini---this guy was a bad hire--he has not idea what he was doing
Mact
Chirelli
Keith G for 6 months
Holland
Lowe was most successful of the bunch--he was hated for most of his years on the job and he is one of the main Old boys club that we bashed all the time
for me, I have no answers, what the oilers did in the 2019 off season is just killing us. The Broberg draft and several of the moves. I usually love my Swedes... but we had taken Bouchard the year before--we knew we needed goal scoring l depth to come sooner than later and there were a lot of forwards on the board when we took Broberg. Broberg wasn't even the top D man left on the board..
Everyone has a list of players they can not stand
Mine are Yams, Jesse P. and pretty much all the D--
Yams was good last year but he has fallen off the face of the earth for production. He has one year left at 3mill. With Jesse P, do we even offer him a qualifying offer for next year?
Our D just sucks in our zone and man to man coverage
Lowe and Tambellini thought building a team around a winger(Hall) and in was a good idea. It isnt. Nuge Hall Eberle would never be a strong team. Such a weak 1st line in retroperspective.
K Gretz was quite good. Chia suddenly fall off for some reason. MacT didnt make good trades to improve the team. Holland has great patience... great great patience... wich survives my patience. Why did he trade for AA, who is a poor intelligence player. Why did he give Kassian an absurd contract, and why doesnt he address one more D this year. Well, to be fair around all rumors - maybe its what he does right now.
Why did he gave away 3 mil to Yamamoto? Why didnt he trade Puljujärvi last summer for at least anything.
Broberg, Holloway wobt be impact players for at keast 2 years from here.
When McDavid and Leon has their primes now, he should think diffrent.
Get some D Ken, get some D. Make it so.
