The Fucking Season Thread - Redemption Tour '22

[JackBurton]

Are the Oilers still considering Babs?

Rumours are McDavid nixed the idea. And he should be doing that as they have completely screwed him as it is.

"Now I want you listen realgud Connor, you're gonna make me a list..."

 

[LeafGm]

I’m torn between never wanting Babcock to ever get another NHL coaching job, and grabbing a bag of popcorn and enjoying the hilarious show we’d see if he got hired by Oil Change.

oh I'm not. I want Babs to Edmonton badly.

 

[JackBurton]

At this point they need to give McDavid hiring authority. He's going to want out.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Oilers found their guy in Woodcroft. Much like Keefe he's a young modern coach who was very very good in the AHL.

I think they'd be very dumb not to hand him the reins.

 

[JackBurton]

Yep. oilers are going with retreads far too much.

Those are reins of terror no matter who grabs hold of them. No goalie, terrible D, and no real offensive depth. But how can you blow it up and tank while McDavid is in his prime. The irony is they’re completely screwed until McD picks up and leaves for nothing and they start from scratch.

They have McDrai and a shitty division. Some bare minimum basic modern structure in their game and they shouldn't have too much trouble being decent.

And their goalies are fine tbh. They never deserved the blame they were getting.

showcase time.

which almost certainly means, heelllllloooooo coach Mike come summer time

 

[zeke]

Warming up to making a trade deadline call. Not there yet but I'm warming up.

To SJS: 1st, Amirov, 2nd/B prospect
To TOR: Hertl (@50%), Middleton

 

[zeke]

Keefe says Campbell starts again tomorrow.

Could have easily kept alternating with Mrazek.

 

[zeke]

BOOM

 

[Wayward DP]

guess we don't need Hertl anymore

 

[Preston]

It took a second for the tweet to load. Zeke's "BOOM" got me excited. I'm depressed now.

but wait there's more....

 

[zeke]

unless the Leafs are allowed to send him to the marlies by that rule i'm not sure of.

 

[leafman101]

I am just going to assume they can send him down because Pridham.

 

[Aberdeen]

I'm going to assume a blockbuster because boredom.
