Why would the Oilers have waited till after Christmas to give Eakins his present?
‘Congratulations! You don’t have to coach the Oilers anymore! You don’t have to humiliate yourself on national television, and you still draw your pay till your contract is over! Merry Christmas, _____________ [name of this year’s victim]!’
(Uh, whoops. Uh, did I hit ‘send’ before filling in the blank, Mac? Damn Tier 2 email software!)
ObOnT: I can’t disagree with those who say DeBoer was not the problem in N.J. However, I get the impression the players thought he was the problem, so taking their excuse away may not be such a bad thing.
