Mark Spector is no good.

I love this chapters title.... “The Old Boys Club — A Cautionary Tale”... as Mark says. So he knows what the problem is - and exactly how did the Oiler's solve it Mark - by hiring Gretzky and moving around MacT and Lowe chair to chair.


You need to win one at a time, it's impossible to win 3 or 4 cups in one year, but that seems exactly what they want to do in Edmonton. I guess all this winning has gone to their heads in Edmonton, all those winning lottery draft picks, they now just expect it.
