The Oilers will have lots of interested individuals for the GM position.
#1. The team has McDavid, Draisaitl, RNH, Klefbom and Nurse who are strong building blocks.
#2. The organization has a state-of-the-art new facility @RogersPlace and a tremendous engaged fan base

He believes they have better assets than when Chiarelli took over......
That one is the most mind-boggling quote to me...if that's the case then why is Chiarelli fired?
The key Assets they had when Chiarelli took over were.
1st Overall (McDavid)
Draisaitl > Still there
RNH > Still there
Nurse > Still there
Klefbom > Still there
16th Overall > Gone for Reinhart
33rd Overall > Gone for Reinhart
57th Overall > Traded for Talbot
Hall > Gone for Larsson
Eberle > Gone for Spooner
Schultz > Traded for a 3rd
Yakupov > Zach Pochino
So all their best pieces now were there when Chiarelli took over, and the other good pieces they have were traded for nothing. Find it funny how their media keep talking about how good the pieces of McDavid, Drai, RNH, Nurse, and Klefbom are...when that is exactly what Chiarelli had to start plus much more.

This reads like they are actually considering McDavid, Draisaitl, RNH, Klefbom or Nurse to be the new GM.
And I wouldn't put it past them.

Edmonton media might consider RNH, Klefbom and Nurse strong building blocks.
To anyone watching a winning team, those are more... decent support pieces.

man, the hfoil thread regarding the conference made me spit my water out laughing twice now.
They clearly have had enough and are seeing thru all the propaganda, at least for now.

Makes sense. That is why they have to overpay players to come / stay there.

Kieth Gretzky should just be named full time gm. He'd fit right in with the old boys club and he has some impressive stuff on his resume, like being the director of Amateur Scouting for the Bruins when they took Zboril, DeBrusk, Senyshyn with the three picks preceding Barzal, Connor, and Chabot

LOL.
"I hear that all the time that it's an Old Boys Club here, and that just simply is not true."
*proceeds to defend Old Boys Club Supreme Commander Kevin Lowe and give the GM duties to Keith Gretzky*
Eventually the Oilers fans are going to stop caring about this franchise because their brand is taking the beating of a life time.

They are trying to trade him and he is refusing to go.
So now the public shaming starts.
Next step is asking him for part of his salary back.
From there it escalates into Lowe drunkenly calling into Stauffers show to threaten Treliving to a fight.
