It'll get better. Lowe reassembled all the dudes that ran the team into the ground 5 years ago because they have Cup rings as players 25 years ago or whatever.

keep dreaming, the only players who choose edmonton will be young players that want to play run and gun hockey with big minutes to pad their stats so they can cash in.

Lowe wasn't a minor player. But he's no HOFer like some chodes believe. He was the Ken Daneyko of those teams.

I remember how excited fans of teams were to potentially sign him and he is starting to disappoint.

Definitely. So does Eager... I think Ben Eager should be our new GM. Ben Eager knows a thing or two about winning!

Cup contention teams:
Justin, we want you on the team. We can't guarantee you anything because we're dedicated to winning and we'll do whatever it takes but we believe you can be a big part of that

Edmonton:
Dude, you only got to be better than Potter and you'll get like 30 minutes a night.

I think he needs a stronger defensive coach. He reminds me of Ehrhoff a bit when he came to Vancouver. Mess defensively but his offensive talent fit in the system really well. AV and Bowness worked like (frank) with him and he became a respectable defender without compromising the offence you needed.

He makes a lot of really slick passes and jumps into the play to provide options better than any of the other dmen, but man (frank) he's not that great his side of the red line.

Could be the system, could be the player, probably a mixture of both.

As bad as people like to poop on Letang, Green, Karlsson, Subban, etc. for being bad defensively, they aren't really that bad. They're average to better than average defenders but they aren't bad.

You know who is really good? Like way too good? OEL. Holy piss nuts he's nutso good.

You could see the same thing with Therrien and Subban last year. His defence improved leaps and bounds because they kept him more contained and less erratic defensively. With that calmness came the ability to dictate the play more and his offence has improved with it.
