If Renney and Krueger can't get a solid backchecking effort out of guys like Hall and Eberle, then its unlikely that TM will get it either.
I don't care what anyone says, this Oilers core is a coach killing core and that won't change unless there are consequences.
Where is Chia going to put his stamp on this team, if its forbidden for him to move Hall, Eberle, NNH and Yak for example?
And as someone mentioned before, no GM is going to do the Oilers a favor.
As it stands, the Oilers are going to have to find a way to shed payroll, and not add to payroll.
