Don't think so. Button got canned after the 02-03 season. Sutter made the trade for Kipper, not Button.

Ahh crap, you are right too. It was Sutter's moves in 02-03 that had his fingers all over it.

God that was a long time ago...

Listening to Lowe is like watching Twilight. The guy can't get through a single sentence without taking a huge pause.

So, happiest guy at the bar today will be Tambellini? Get's the marionette strings cut off.

Good luck Mac T......I'm sure your friendship with Lowe will be strong enough to survive this.

Exactly. Seems to be selective memory with MacTavish among some fans that he rode off to the sunset after the run in 06.

Actually its 3...as Howson was there for the years leading up to the blow up.

Stunning is the only way to describe things in Oilerville.

Howson the guy that orchestrated the Pronger, Carter and Nash trades when they demanded to leave their respective teams can now preside over the next generation of NHL stars that will want to leave

Tough to say if this will help them.

A big issue is they've had 50 different cooks in the kitchen. That hasn't really changed, and the cooks are all the same as before, save 1.
