I'm noticing significant empty seats in the arena. I must admit even with them playing well I'm not motivated to do anything but watch them on tv. If someone gave me tickets I'd gladly blow a hundred bucks down at the arena but that ain't happening.
- Buffalo--Sabres

They need to do what Atlanta Falcons did.
Ticket prices are higher, but it has the lowest concession prices in the league.

Oilers firing another coach.

Maybe they should fire the GM instead.

Skinner-Eichel-Pominville
Olofsson-Malkin-Reinhart
Sheary-Mitts-Okposo
Wilson-Asplund/Girgensons-Erod

That lineup goes toe-to-toe with anyone in the league

Sounds like another coach casualty as sources suggest Ken Hitchcock is replacing Todd Mclellan on the Oilers bench.

How are you going to afford:

Jack
Malkin
Skinner
Dahlin

All making $8.5 and above

Then:
Risto
Sam
Casey
Okposo

Making over $5 million

Not to mention

McCabe is due a raise
Sheary is due a raise
Pilut if as good as advertised will be due a raise

Then you're expecting guys in the AHL to be able to fill in and keep going without missing a beat?

I mean on paper it looks great for a year but man it gets tricky down the road.

Plus Malkin is aging and those draft picks are going to be super important to supply depth down the road.

Well the Vegas game in October they just kept scoring even though Vegas had the lead by a large margin in the shots on goal category.

I want to see them come out firing and not let off the gas at all...perhaps against the Leafs!
