I was trying to see how much was OBC in pushing for Reinhart, or seeing if any of the scouts were still around, and this videopopped up, which I think is pretty funny considering the closing in it, and then watched his most recent video which was just ripping into all the moves Chiapet has made.






It's a deal they've been trying to make up for since it was made. I suppose the only thing that makes the trade funnier is that if they hadn't made it, they would have taken Svechnikov or Eriksson-Ek so they still wouldn't be any better.
That really didn’t age well. It’s sounds like a guy who changed his instictive response to an answer on a multiple choice question.

Don’t do that.

Why he would have faith in a scouting director hired after the Oiler’s exhaustive and thorough search of the confines of Rexall Place for new insight is beyond me.

There’s dumb.

Then there is Oiler dumb.
