I really feel like the Oilers aren't done destroying their team yet for this season.

I think that was made abundantly obvious when Bob Nicholson proclaimed that the Oilers would conduct an exhaustive search to find the right candidate who fit the Oilers culture. This announcement does not get nearly enough traction and attention in the sh*t storm of the past few days, but to my thinking was perhaps the most devastatingly obvious indication of what is clearly wrong with the Oilers, and why this will not be fixed with the next General Manager.
