As long as you don't take Ekblad. Reinhart would be a better fit for you guys anyway.

No Doubt ... Now with so many sellers I probably won't make as much money as I used to but..... the Leafs are good so maybe a lot more Leaf fans will be looking to buy tickets to the games this year

Stupid Ted Black, where's Pegula? Unacceptable. What's next I'm gonna wear pants before 2pm? How come no one has been fired or murdered? Ill kill em, just has to be after 2pm. Dumb Rolston, where is his Stanley Cup? We need winners. Trade for Giroux!! Give em Weber and Stafford. Where are my (frank)ing pants? It doesn't take 17 years to paint a bridge even if your holding the bridge painters hand.

If Armia is gonna get a shot here,
I really hope he's on a line with Grigorenko
Put those two back with Girgensons
That line looked good at the last two rookie camps from what ppl were saying

If we pick 2nd I think we might take him
Not that we need ANOTHER defenseman, but u gotta take the best available player
We'd def trade u Myers or Pysyk + in a package for one of your young forwards though if that happened

It's so bad I can't even give my season tickets away. (At this point it's not worth the gas it costs to drive to the game)

There is no righting the ship but rather finding a coach who

1. Knows how to communicate with the media

2. Knows how to have a healthy relationship with his players regardless of team record

3. Can form a correct message to send to the kids that goes beyond winning games.

It appears Ron cant do any of these things.

I don't care that Cody and his line played poor D. What I do care about is that our coach confused them by benching them and offered little insight into why. Sure, let them know that they are playing like absolute crap. Dont play fing mind games with players that we need 2-3 years from now to come into their own if we have any shot at ANYTHING.

Screw draft picks, screw who our GM is, screw anything and everything about this team. By far the scariest thing in Buffalo right now is Ron Rolston behind the bench. Its not what we see on the ice but the damage he is doing that we cant see. Who knows when its all said and done but the guy could cost us the entire rebuild before we even get anywhere just because hes this fing inept.

If we had picked Ekblad. Id move at least one of em if it gives us something we need.

Ekblad is a force. IMO we need Reinhart but Ekblad is considerably better as an overall talent.

Darcy won't fire Rolston until he is sure he has that number 1 pick (or at least the best shot at the number 1 pick) locked up.

It is all part of the plan.

Then he has to figure out a way to have the worst record again next year. Is it possible he hires an even worse coach to replace Rolston.

If we were in a position we had to pick Ekblad I say trade the pick.

I agree with your above post too, Rolston needs to be canned asap, he is hurting this team.

The talent level on this team gets you close to a number one overall pick regardless if you have a jack adams winner behind the bench.

We need a respectable coach that has a vision to where this team will go. Ron literally has no idea or at least has shared next to nothing when it comes to "the bigger picture" hes just this broken record "one day at a time" nonsense that people spew when they are sucking at whatever they are currently doing in life

Whatever happens, the Oilers need to do something... I'd be definitely willing to trading one of our young guys for some help on the D... Our D is insanely bad! My 7 year old nephew and I were watching an Oilers game last week, and he was pointing out things the D were doing wrong (and he was 100% right) It's gotten that bad... My 7 year old nephew has more hockey knowledge than our players/coaches.

As long as arses are firmly planted in the seats and buying consessions, why does it matter where they are from. The trick is to get at least competetive games so those same arses stay longer and drink more 8$ beer

Trading back out of anything in the top 3 is a horrible idea. I cant find it now but there was this study looking at total player value by pick position since the draft started. Its insane how fast it drops off even after just the 2nd overall. If your there you pick him. Especially in regards to how shallow this draft is in top talent.

Seasons not over. Young players getting injured, lose the lottery, Miller gets traded then Enroth holds out for a contract. Leino and Stafford get an Extension.....you see it can always get worse.
