Someone needs an intervention... that or MacLean needs to go get checked at a hospital. Maybe in 4 years... I can buy that the third worst team in the NHL might be able to become good enough to take a cup after 4 years, but no more then four years? That's just lunacy.

Looks like it was Babcock that didn't want St.Louis, not Yzerman.

Marty is such a baby to take it out on Steve

This is the same idiot who suggested doing "North"/"South" conferences and putting a team in Halifax.

To Gary Bettmans face.

Gary deserves a medal for not laughing at his stupidity on national tv.

Yzerman said repeatedly at the time that it wasn't his decision.

St. Louis chose to ignore that fact

Even if they do win a cup in the next few years, everyone in the league will know that they didn't really win it through good management as they had 4 1st overalls

They better hope MacLean is right because if they don't win a cup within 3 years they probably don't win a cup at all IMO.

With that top heavy roster they are going to be hard pressed to build any depth.

Good luck trying to be build a strong overall roster when Leon is asking for $6 million after his ELC and McDavid wants $10 million.

Hey they already are only $3million away from the cap this year and they still don't have a top goalie or more than 1 top 4 d-man.

Did he mention how many they'd win since it's only a matter of when?

I'm all for the epic Edmonton is no good thread, but it's dog days of Summer, with very little hockey talk going on. Not the worst to have another thread to venture into, especially given it's RM that said it.

Any success they have is going to have an asterisk beside it. At the very least we can continue to chirp them about this if they become good.


Edmonton Oilers make the playoffs!*



*but they've had so many first overall picks that we've lost count, so big whoop
