Excellent addition to the scouting staff!
Wow, Kassian can continue to thank Tkachuk for holding down a job. It's rather incredible.

Yeah, if Kassian isn't sending Tkachuk a Christmas basket, he should be.

They really are trying to break the record for most scumbags on the payroll, aren't they?

I wouldn't trust Kassian to pump my gas, much less giving him a clipboard and an opinion.

BUT he can spot his own kind, and that's what the Oilers are looking for these days.

Savvy move from team orange jumpsuit.

Reminder that for $125 USD, Zack Kassian would literally say anything on camera.

The guy is dumber than a bag of rocks. How would those scouting meetings even go?

Head scout: Hey Zach, what do you think of ______ that you watched the other day?

Kassian: My cat's breath smells like cat food.

Hey, if you have eyes pointing different directions, you can't watch two players at once!

Added to your post...really the only logical explanation here.

Anyone else his career would've been done after his DUI situation in MTL but someone else took (or was told) to take the fall for him.

One of the things that I always taught as a coach is...this was soccer, but there is only 1 ball.

In hockey there is only 1 puck.

You need players who can fill other roles, balance lines and do other things. Because if you've got 3 guys who are only good with the puck on their stick?

There is still only 1 puck.

Hopefully the Oilers will alert the teams Kassian is scouting so local drivers and foliage can be on guard for his substance abuse/driving.
