Fine, but don't spew that crap on Calgary radio.

Tom Gazzola of Edmonton Sports Talk.
It was unbearable radio for 30 minutes for sure on our station. Tom even made fun of Steinberg for getting excited about our free agency signings (Mantha) and equated such with Hendriks and some of the other Oiler FA signings of past.
No recognition that Mantha signing was shrewd business and likely would result in more picks at trade deadline in return.
Essentially laughed out loud that the best we had were Huberdeau, Kadri and Mantha.
The arrogance of the McDavid era was quite evident. Sadly no push back from Logan Gordan or Peter Klein.
Not sure if they are going around the league and doing team reviews to fill their segments. But hope that is the last of Oilers love-ins I will have to bear on 960.
It is clear we will get no respect from up north for quite some time. Meanwhile we will rebuild this thing properly as Conny is doing.
