It's no coincidence that trade coincided with the Oilers really sliding. Stoll and Greene played a big part in the Kings growth years from bad team to winning the cup. That was typical Lowe undervaluing character and leadership with his all-skill tunnel vision mentality that's as dumb as the Flames win-now mentality.
