@KevinMcCurdy @EdmOilerlytics I think you could do it but you would have to take a Morgan Reilly type contract back....

@EdmOilerlytics I'll hard disagree with you on this one. He's got leadership qualities and some teams are gonna need to hit a rapidly expanding floor. He's got positive value.

Why is everyone evaluating Nurse like he’s gunna get some positive value back? It will cost a first to shed that contract and that’s the truth.

@sdpnsports @aasingleton17 Yes! And Jackson!

Should Stan Bowman get the axe in Edmonton? #SDP #LetsGoOilers

@StanFischler @EdmontonOilers Stan, did you watch the Rangers play this year? In what world are they contenders?

Ace Toronto Sun columnist Steve Simmons is right about the @EdmontonOilers. This is not a TEAM, but a patchwork of skaters around Club-Never-Cup maitre d's -- McDavid and Leon. Aging and fading, they can't keep up. In 2 years deposed King Connor will do a Gretzky; Ranger-bound.

@NewWorldOilers What about Bill Scott? If other teams want him why not Bill? I don't care who it is but Jackson and Bowman have to go.

President of Hockey Operations: Paul Coffey General Manager: Mark Hunter Coach: Bruce Cassidy

@TalkeyHockey And the Leafs are in a better situation? Really? That's your take? If he leaves EDM he's going to Florida or Cali not the tire fire that is Toronto.

Look I would say this even if I wasn't a Leafs fan. If McDavid didn't sign that extension, he would be on his way to signing with the Maple Leafs this summer. No way in hell does he stay after what transpired this season.

@Kgill39 Most of what Leon refers to is Jackson before Bowman was every hired.

Leon calling it like it is! He loved that 2024 team just like the rest of us. Unfortunately, our new GM decided to rip it to pieces

#Oilers the sad thing is.....despite the comments of Draisaitl and McDavid........odds are Jackson and Bowman stay.....cause Katz won't fire them. Knoblauch should be gone based on his media avail this afternoon alone. Bowman is a puppet as long as Jackson is around.

#Oilers Eastern media saying 97 and 29 want out cause they both hold organization to task about getting worse not better. Eastern media fail to mention both 97 and 29 hold themselves responsible at the top of the list and reiterate they want to win ik Edmonton. Crickets!!

@oilers_life @Nealerrr What's the motivation other than home? 3 times in the 2nd round in 20 years and missed the playoffs this season. Worse media than Edmonton. Ha, I'd say he goes south or west of he leaves EDM not east.

@Nealerrr Why would he want to join a poverty team ?

Starting to feel inevitable that McDavid becomes a Leaf after that contract

#Oilers I'm stunned how our fan base thinks Bowman or Knoblauch do anything without the OK from Jackson. You wanna change the organization? Cut off the head of the snake! Jackson must go!

@AustinHockeyYT AND Jackson.

Video today. Fire both Bowman and Knoblauch tbh.

@dhockey13 @PierreVLeBrun Pierre missed where 97 and 29 both slammed the organization and said it needs to be better.......while also making it known they want to win in Edmonton.

@PierreVLeBrun A whole lot of nothing said here elite journalism Pierre

It’s interesting that our only focus seems to be on what 97 will decide to do, whether that’s this summer or next or whenever. And it’s obviously because he only has a 2-year deal. But I mean, nothing is stopping Leon Draisaitl from asking out one day if that’s what he wanted. Not saying he will nor do I have any feeling he will. But just because he signed an 8-year deal doesn’t mean he will necessarily play it out all in Edmonton.

@MorganLaidler If McDrai leave and win elsewhere...........failing in EDM will always be associated with them.......neither wants that. Plus they know a Cup in EDM would be legendary.

Like I said the other day. The story hasn’t been finished here in Edmonton, so he isn’t going anywhere.

@OilersJack its not......but Katz likes shiny toys (Jackson's ties to McDavid) and retread GMs who have a Cup (Bowman) Should hire a new era GM and an established fiery coach.

Major take away from the Press Conferences. McDavid & Draisaitl came across as more committed to drastically improving and winning than Knoblauch & Bowman. Katz year end management review needs to answer one question: Is this the GM/Coach that wins a championship next year?

Another damning quote aimed at Darryl Katz and Jeff Jackson!

@dstaples yeah they do....they need a coach with more fire as the leaders aren't fiery by nature.....well Leon is but that's it.

No, they do not. They might. But there’s no imperative to do so.

THIS IMO is the most damning quote of all........Drai saying JACKSON screwed up in the summer of 2024. I F'N love it. Jackson has thought his shit doesn't' stink since taking over the Oilers. He's useless!

@OilersNation @EdmontonOilers That's a damning quote and throws JACKSON under the bus......Bowman to but.....I said that in 2024......just re-sign the team that lost in game 7 and we might have a Cup. But Jackson is the smartest guy in the room who screwed this team. Could have re-signed all for same money.

"Everyone was so big, the McLeod's, the Foegele's, they played such a massive role in all of it, Desharnais's, Ceci." Leon Draisaitl speaks on how the 2024 Oilers were the best team he's been a part of and why they were special. 📹: @EdmontonOilers

@BleedOilBlue Stan Bowman along with Jeff Jackson should have no say in who comes in or leaves.........they should both leave.

GM Stan Bowman says the Oilers will just bring in a few new players for next season. 📹 EdmontonOilers

@qauckenbush17 only 1 year.....

You sign Connor Murphy btw. It’s not a debate.
