Coffey example is the worst of Chronyism. A player that by his own admission had not visited Edmonton once by choice in the decades between his playing here and the Heritage Classic. That being the affinity and connection he had held with Edmonton, and the Edmonton Oilers. ) i.e.NONE, ZERO, NADA)Also, like all his contemporaries he was of course missing in action not contributing a dime (nor did ANY of the other Oilers alumni) or even make any appearance contribution to saving the team in the 90's.
Indeed the collective consciousness of this whole ex Oilers group was screw the team and city, its small market, if it can't exist, it can't exist.
They simply didn't care, most of them never did. Except to come back here when they needed a gig and paycheck.
This is the height and obscenity of hanger on entitlement. Guys that couldn't care if the city or team or org even still existed just ironically coming back here for some retirement coin.
makes me sick tbh
K Lowe and MacT, in their defense came here when the team needed something, to help the team. Coffey hasn't been affiliated with this team for 31yrs. Why is he here now?
