It's always been management and it will always be management. They should've traded Kevin Lowe for Larsson if they wanted to address the cultural failings of the organization.
You are implying that management, the impeccable Oilers management at that, is in any way at fault for this disastrous fiasco?

That group of fine, upstanding gentlemen who are heavily experienced in the realm of victory? The thought that they could, in any conceivable manner, bear any form of responsibility for the current state of the Edmonton Oilers is so reprehensible that it borders upon heresy good sir! Heresy!
