Does Peter Chiarelli's last couple years of work remind anyone of the Seinfeld episode where George is trying to do everything possible to get fired from the Yankees?

I can imagine Chia putting on the skin colored body suit next game and streaking around Rogers arena.

Even Rasmus must be surprised that he has rent-free lodging in Edmonton.

Stauffer doesn't have the guts to go after the first 2 pairs of D so he's picking on a rookie. Tough guy.

I was at the game in penticton when Rasmus got tuned up by Nurse.

Nurse spent the entire young stars tourney taking liberties. Rasmus, who I believe had ZERO career fights, got tired of Nurse's BS and showed some serious balls taking on that POS, even if he didn't win the fight.

For Booster Bob to pretend like it was some honourable thing by Nurse is sad. Nurse is a loser and plays like a loser. He's Oiler tough.

The refs don't make themselves available (well, the league doesn't) to anyone. Not media, not teams, etc. Yet this guy gets the inside info that they messed up a call?

Sure.

LMFAO! Yes! This!

Chiarelli on phone: “Gretzky... I can’t get fired!”

Oilers fan walking by: “Hey! Body Suit Man!”

McKenzie on McDavid

https://www.nicholsonhockey.com/arch...on-in-edmonton

Quote:
“The path forward is the one that… I can’t even imagine what Connor McDavid’s thinking right now. You’ve got the best player in the game and he’s doing everything he possibly can and then some. And yet inside he’s got to feel like he’s dying inside a little bit every game with the Oilers out at bat. I can only imagine he looks at it and says, ‘Where’s our path forward. How do we get better fast.’

“And I can only tell you - and it’s a different time and place - but when he went to Erie as a 15 year old, those first two years in Erie when the Erie Otters weren’t very good, that ate him up.

“I wrote in my book Hockey Confidential - there’s a chapter on Connor McDavid in there - and I talked to him and his family about those first two years. His dad Ryan, a couple of times during the first and second year, would have to drive down to Erie just to talk Connor off the ledge because they weren’t winning. And the funny thing is nobody expected Erie to win just because Connor showed up. And nobody expected the Oilers to win a Cup just because Connor showed up.

“But very rapidly over his time in the OHL, the Erie Otters - led by McDavid - became a model franchise and a powerhouse. And now the exact opposite is happening here.

“So it’s a bleak situation in Edmonton right now, boy oh boy.”
The bold isn't true Bob, but everything else is quite good.

The oilers arent losing because of Spooner, Jones and Rattie. But they are the ones taking the fall because you can't fire the refs.

Stauffer is so full of crap, lol. Dude is an embarrassment to his profession, as are the rest of those media clowns working in the Oilers' propaganda department. That entire franchise is the worst in pro sports by a country mile.

When I think of Chia going through these moves and potentially set up a trade, all I can think of is Homer Simpson at Selma's wedding.

"Now Chia, do you know any reason that we shouldn't approve this trade? Speak now or the trade call is going to be approved"

That should read 6 assists. The 6th one was the nail in his coffin.

And later in Lowe’s office after Chiarelli trades their first round pick and still misses the playoffs, Lowe is about to fire Chiarelli when Nicholson walks in and takes the fall:

Nicholson to Lowe: “Chia was only acting under my orders... and to be quite frank, I’m tired of all your macho head games.”

Lowe: “Macho head games?”

Chiarelli: “He’s lying sir! I’m the one who’s tired of your macho head games!”

Propaganda Minister Bob Stauffer now mounting an impressive argument for how and why the 2017 success was not a "fluke."

NHL officials admit a mistake? Happens all the time lol

God, Oilers fans are so entitled. This guy on the phone thinks that Darryl Katz owes him a refund on his caesar that he purchased at Saturday's game for the Oilers's poor performance.
