They'll go to the best possible spot, 9th or 10th in their division with no possible help on the way and no ability to spend money on above average players.
I have to ask, when Chia is fired do you think they'll throw an amazing moment when Kevin Lowe comes back to save the Franchise, or will they just get Mac-T to come back and Lowe will run things from the shadows like a dementedly stupid honest Iago?

This is so true. I don't like to post there often but an Oiler fan was saying Nurse is much better than Hamilton. I replied with a post showing stats and said I am pretty sure Hamilton is the better player. Deleted. That is what happens when every fan base has at least 10 moderators plus another 1000 other ones. It is just chaos. We are lucky to have the moderators we have here.

Yeah I laughed when somebody started a thread about Darryl Katz upping his creepy factor and a Mod jumped right in and ranted that the board wasn't mature enough to handle it and shut it down after about 10 pretty benign posts.
I flashed back to when the Oilers at their worst hired some public relations firm that went out to message boards like HF to pass on the message of the posititivty about the Oilers.

Five seconds after reading the headline about Katz I came to Calgarypuck hoping to read some classics, but am admittedly still bummed out a day later that such material is here.

Am I supposed to know that couch? Is it the couch that Brendan Dassey sits on during his interrogation on "Making a Murderer"?
I'm not trying to be funny either, that's the closest I have to an idea of what that couch is.
But I have a bad feeling it's used in porn.....
It's porn isn't it.....

E=NG reminder: Draisaitl's ELC expires this year because the Oilers wasted his first year before sending him back to junior.

He's played himself to a huge raise, and with the current relationship between the NHL and the NHLPA there won't be any deals that are less then player value.
Even though he's not playing center, he's probably going to get center money. I look at him right now as more valuable then a guy like Stephen who's making 6.750. I look at a guy like O'reilly who just signed a 7.5 deal or a guy like Giroux who signed a 8.25 deal.
I'm thinking that he's going to hit the money load and get a 7.25 8 year offer.

I think these last two games against the tanking Canucks will lure the oilers into a false sense of security.
