Oh, there is something that can be done to weather the storm but won't be done. Firing Chia alone doesn't put the Oilers in the clear, not by a longshot.
Post-Game Talk: Still a joke, no playoffs.

At least he said we. He wants to be a part of the solution.

one more season like this and the rumours will really start to heat up
your Edmonton Oilers, where even McDavid can't save the organization from gross incompetence
Maybe then Katz will sit up and take notice. Right now Katz is laughing his ass off at all us suckers.
Thank f***ing god that Connor is FINALLY voicing his frustration. This honestly gives me hope and we can only hope that Katz is taking his words seriously. This is the only hope for real change, Connor's mounting frustration.

He's saying he needs the fast food place near him at all times.

Crazy how comparable these two teams are. Looking back, I didn't realise the Pens missed the playoffs so much in Mario's first eight years there.
We need to draft McDavid a Jagr.
That's the risk you take when you want to let a GM that has a lot of red flags dither for an extended period of time.

When the tv camera is pointed in the Oilers d-zone when the play is down there, all 5 guys can be seen in the picture.
In other words, everyone is playing defense and no one has flown the zone.

Bobby Burger needs to be fired tmrw. This lays at his feet for this deterioration of this roster

And to top it all off, the Flames have now reached 50 wins, the first time in 30 years.
And every season we think "it can't get any worse."

They're all stupid, but this particular version of the McDavid-era Oilers is that last guy. He wanted this style of team and he built exactly what he wanted.
And that's what you get when your GM has no respect for skill or speed in a hockey roster.

If McDavid leaves IMO hiring Chiarelli will be the biggest mistake in franchise history.
Yes, above trading Gretzky. At least they got 4 Cups out of Gretzky and managed to win one without him anyway.
If you lose a player of McDavid's talent without even getting anything great done, that is an absolute failure and we are in this spot because of this moron GM's team building philosophy.
Now the new GM is under tremendous pressure with not much cap space for next year and not much in the way of tradable assets.
