Also love when ex Oilers rip the organization

It's not losing minds over a 5th round draft pick. It's the death by a 1000 cuts mentality the management group seems to have. Going out of their way to bring in mediocre players and expending multiple assets to do it. And doing these things at odd times and continually overpaying. The reasoning is suspect. The returns are suspect. And if it was on one of two moves no one cares. But it's not. It's the large majority of moves. And that an issue. So when something like this happens it's a case of more fuel to the tire fire that is the canucks management right now.
It's a tough task he was given but he agreed with the task and to this day supports the the direction ownership has set. He screwed up his first summer when he had cap space and assets to move. He failed (and continues to do so) use any leverage to his advantage.
