From the article, almost sounds like a awkward request that Sather made happen. Almost like a guy like Peplinski asking King if he could get on the ice for a practice to see what a 2014 practice is run like.
That was one thing I wanted to have happen, to go through the process like everybody else and to experience that, and to give Glen the opportunity to make a decision that he feels comfortable with.
Surprising he's on the Oilers without the local press being told to wash his car, shine his shoes, and build up to some grandiose introduction...especially as Lowe's edict to the local scribes and Principe to pump Hall's tires are now over. Though he has as many cups as Lowe, so...Lowe is working with a guy with the same credentials as he has.
The extent of the vague adviser role entails probably Lowe or MacTavish calling him to get him to get a question and answer to and from Slats, and Slats has blocked Lowe's number after constant annoying calls over the years.
