Here is the thing, I think Tambo can and does want to make moves but as the old saying goes too many cooks in the kitchen! It has to go through Tambo then Lowe than Katz! Let Tambo do his job without Lowe interfering and see how it plays out for a year if no changes then fire Tambo too! THis team has been run poorly since Lowe was brought in, that my fellow Oiler fans is FACT! - undisputed_8821
Fact huh, Care to back that up? Do you have anything close to a fact that will prove your statements? I can show facts that Lowe made trades that improved the team. I can show where this team went into a downfall when Peca and Pronger smudged Edmonton reputation so bad it went from being a fairly good UFA destination to a place no one wanted to play.
Can you do the same?
I know you can't and that is a fact.
And you call me the village Idiot.
Look in the mirror sometime.
Why does this place allow 13 year olds here its usually adult talk here.

You have this strange notion that we're all 13 year old boys...
Ill save my judgement for another few weeks. Remember Tambs still has a fire underneath his ass. I think the draft made it even bigger. Hopefully we see some action in the next few weeks

It still amazes me that people see Jones as a 4th line guy. He's got 17 and 18 goals in the last two seasons.
Hemsky doesn't belong on the third line he'd have to be defensively responsible which he is not. Drafting Yakupov made Hemsky expendable. - rathagor
Yakupov is not a superstar yet. Putting all our eggs in one basket is not the right strategy. Best case nail ( or top rookies) gets in the vicinity of 55 generally
speaking. Hemmer is capable of more than this.
Lets at least wait till deadline and see what we have in yaks.
We finally have the opportunity to truly 'shelter' a rookie. Less pressure, softer minutes, 2nd unit pp time. I believe hall and especially eberle wouldve had better rookie seasons (not to say they were bad by any means) if we had the luxury to do the same for them.
Maybe he can handle it, but lets not put ourselves in a position where we have no choice between a rookie or a plug.

Why am I the one always stuck playing with the simple ones? Mismanagement of players and coaches Omark, Pronger, Peca, Smyth,Renny, Penner, Vanek, Souray, Fraser. WOW so he made a couple "good" trades for Pronger and Peca. How long did they last here? The fact that you REFUSE to take off your blue, copper and white glasses proves that you are naive and childish not to mention your CONSTANT 12,13 year old boy remarks! The age comments are always what you refer to when losing an argument! Your'e right LB not everyone on here is a 70 year old loser with little to know life left!
I made the same comments with you in regards to this the other day, I get it your thick!! Can we move on? I didn't mention a SINGLE trade NOT a single failed signing. My point is Lowe has made this organization look bad on not 1 or 2 occasions but repeatedly. For that alone he deserves to be let go!! Oh yeah and the fact that if ANY of out young guys hit RFA status how we now fear more than ever an offer sheet from other GM's not happy with KLowe!
What if three of us triple crossed the streams? - TaterNuts
Gozer the Destructor destroys his own a-hole, and he allows us to eat the Marshmallow Man. Pilgor shows Dana Barrett his proton pack, and eventually he gets to Slimer.

Signed a 12 year old boy!! - undisputed_8821
We've been a mediocre to bad team for the best part of 20 years.
And alot of those years k lowe has been in charge.
Ive proposed this before with mixed reviews on both sides but I still think..
MPS for Barrie would be a good move. I get the whole "Inter-division" thing but Barrie is ready and we have two strong top 4 potential puck movers in Barrie & Elliott and we need wingers. MPS may be more proven but at the same time he has his question marks.
I really think MPS would do well on a "work hard" line with Landeskog & O'Reilly even if Avs fans don't. Having Landeskog there could give him a comfortable situation with a model to work towards.
Barrie may not be a top pairing guy but he could end up being just as good as Enstrom. Hes shown he can hold his own defensively and was given 17+ minutes a night for a few games at the end of the year for the Avs.
I could see Colorado adding a mid to late round pick but that's about it if they really seen promise in MPS.

Just watched the Much Music Video Awards because my stupid teenager and b1tchwhore wife wanted to. They got all mad when I chanted "fagg0t" when Bieber came on and then started chanting for Katy Perry to show us her tits.
Bieber ended the riveting festivities performing in pants that looked like he had literally had a poop in them and were bright red. I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard.
In other news, I'm never allowed to watch awards shows with them ever again. Objective: complete.
Next time, I watch The Lorax with the little ones.

I would rather Enstrom personally! Enstrom is proven and a vet to teach the younger guys!
