Ken Holland just won his own personal version of the Stanley cup.

So he is going to ruin another young generational superstar's career...
Have fun, Chicago fans

Isn't McDavid's (former?) agent working somewhere in the Organization? He's probably going to take over.

Oh I'm aware. It's just that Holland has an ever burning need to accumulate more of them, and since the Oilers have no cap room and no trade capital, there's nothing more he can do for them.

Seems to me that Holland has been the most competent GM the Oilers hired - an admittedly low bar - as he did make some moves that allowed them to become the team that competed for the cup this year.
As a Flames fan, this direction is approved. I fully expect McDavid's inner circle to have someone appointed and that will result in less competence as opposed to more.

It would be hilarious if that is where Pissy ends up signing.

What group of idiots would look at Ken Holland and think to themselves:
"Yeah. That. Lets get us some of that!"

Holland: "Whoa, somehow this team is in cap hell and has no draft picks and prospects - time to bail"

Does this mean Kyle Davidson is losing his job or is Holland to be POHO or something like that?

Taking a while to get to 5000

Likely an advisor.
Zero chance he is the GM. Less than zero actually

Or McBaby's dad, maybe. Don't need experience with Conner there.

Always good when the first move a new GM has to make is a buy out.
What a mess the Oilers are in

It's probably the easiest sell of a buyout to owners. "Hey, it wasn't a deal I made, we need to get rid of it".
