Down Goes Brown @DownGoesBrown
Can't believe the Oilers are letting their assistant GM just hand some made up job over to his unemployed brother.

Is this how the NHL repays Gretzky? Buys him shares in OEG? Thanks, Obama.

I still hope they crash and burn, but pretty cool time for them. Most optimism going into a season in probably 25 years.

When can we expect Kurri, Messier, Moog and Ranford to join the team?

Messier joined the Oilers a couple of years ago when it became clear he wasn't in line to become GM of the Rangers.

Best part is there's no way he's spending more than 10 days a year in Edmonton, so this really is a joke role.

Lowe doesn't have the intellectual capacity to operate all of Chiarelli, so they had to split the position and bring in Gretz to run the legs. The big question is - are two half-wits better than one?

Oh man, I hadn't realized Mess was actually hired in some capacity. They should just put every single player who ever won a cup with them into management. What a sham lol

So Katz has completed his life goal of being a better villain than Pocklington by buying Gretzky. I wonder if it's a personal services contract?
