Richard Cloutier: I Do believe I Told You So...

Thank you Nostracluoutus..

Now.. can you please tell me why Joe Succo still has a job? Hm?

Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Holy poop. Please shoot me.

the oilers are the best

I am excited about a roster overhaul

great plan.

Blind squirrels, broken clocks, etc.

Big deal, Tambellini was fired! It was just a matter of time, all he is, is a scapegoat for Kevin Lowe! Lowe is the person who makes all the calls and Tambellini was just the secretary. The good news, is that MacT has been hired and is less likely to be a yes man. Point being, even though Tambellini is gone, the real issue in Edmonton, Kevin Lowe, is still there!

Congrats, Richard. You win the internet.

New Jersey is 1 pt. ahead of the Oilers right now overall. They have gone 1-5-4 in the past 10. They have one LESS WIN than Edmonton. Yet 3 more cheater pts. (otl). You've scored 7 fewer goals as a team. What's your payroll like? How much did you pay Kovalchoke?

Enjoy missing the playoffs big guy. You guys should get used to it. Now that you let your best player walk to Minnesota, Kovalchuk has to do it all himself. Ha, much like in Atlanta, huh?

Sometimes when things change.. they really don't.

All knowing and all seeing Clouts.

This

Time will tell Clouts.......But I'm not so sure Hemsky's legacy will get MacT a first rounder? I'm just sayin! I still like to find a way to keep Gags though.....he plays his butt off for a smaller guy, and will "step up" if he has too. That's more than you can say for a lot of these A$S Jockey's!

If Hemsky gets you a 1st rounder and a spec or a player I will eat my hat

Gagner= Best OVERALL Oilers player this year.

Let me explain: Taylor Hall is great, don't get me wrong. But he is not defensive at all. He has 41 points, and is on the Power Play. Sam Ganger, someone who was trade bait last year, has stepped up his game big time. He plays on the Power play, PK, and has 33 points.

Hopefully Smid can stay.

Kovalchuk sucks man.

Clouts is wrong about Smyth...MacT will find a way to make him retire or buyout,unfortunately the sad reality is that Horcoff yes will stay but I hope I'm so wrong

So you want to intentionally tank? Sounds like a true Devils fan..

You mean Marty i'm going to retire any day now? Who cares. You can't win another cup with your current roster, and he's gonna be gone, then what? Not too many elite UFA goalies out there these days.. maybe you can trade for Luongo?

Colorado is doing what you're about to be doing, except we realized it and didn't go overpay some choke artist Russian to retire 4 years early off his contract in order to 'maybe' get another run out of Marty before he crawls into his motorhome and vanishes to Florida or something.

Good job in the Finals against the Kings, btw. You really showed us how well spent that money was on Kovalchuk.

How many points did he score again? 0?

And i'm pretty sure there are plenty of guys would take Matt Duchene at this point over Kovalchuk.

Kovalchuk sucks man.

clearly

stepping back going into year 4 of a rebuild? gags for picks? more 18 year olds? is this just a troll blog?

are u actually impressed with yourself that u had the foresight to see that tambs could be fired?....
hemsky might be moved?? wow, impressive stuff. our oldest, least talented rw'er thats also unable to play on lower lines effectively, might get moved?!!! i expect a blog congratulating urself if ur predictions become true

we're not taking steps back. this team will be better, more experienced and much closer to a playoff team at the beginning of next season then we are now.

Does it mention on the 8th,10th, and 12th you said he was the best GM in the league? ... but in actuality youve been pretty consistent on saying tambellini sucks... youve just flip flopped every day on whether they make playoffs, if theyre ready to or not etc haha

No way you get a high 1st for Gagner. Caps will give u a low to mid rd 1st for him if they lose Ribiero but thats the best you'll do.

He was so awesome, that 2 entire teams were willing to acquire him.

That's at least 1 more than Sean Avery

Oh oh.. and guess what? The Kings knew what myself and everyone else does.. that he's not worth it.

And how did that go for the Kings? Haha.

Good job. You proved us wrong.
