@KellyKEditing I can't speak to the coffee since I'm a nutjob that doesn't drink coffee. Anything aside from the Farmer's wrap for their food is terrible. I'll choose Krispy Kreme donuts over Timmy's any day, but I do enjoy their apple fritters. And obviously Timbits are a brilliant invention

@lotsryan Timmy’s is disgusting

I love Dunkin’

@pakeha1 @HeavyHockeyNet But that seemed like the final straw for Broberg with the Oilers

@pakeha1 @HeavyHockeyNet Well I guess the first instance of that was with Woodcroft in 22-23, then continued with Knob/Coffey in 23-24. Broberg was in the press box most nights in the first half of 23-24, then they finally sent him down because he wanted to be playing rather than sitting

New for @HeavyHockeyNet: Deep Dive: Bowman's two-year review A review of the good, the bad, and the ugly of Bowman's two years as #Oilers GM after a first round exit ⬇️ #LetsGoOilers heavyhockey.com/2026/05/11/dee…

@pakeha1 @HeavyHockeyNet That was Woodcroft I'm pretty sure. Yes, Ekholm and Kulak blocked him; but the worst was Holland saying Broberg had a spot to lose in 2022 camp and then signing Ryan Murray. Then he kept Niemelainen over Broberg to start the season as well (which never made sense imo)

@lotsryan @HeavyHockeyNet He was blocked when they got Ekholm, and still had Nurse and Kulak. The season he went back to the AHL, they (Coffey/Knoblauch) chose to play Desharnais vs Broberg or move someone else to RD.

@pakeha1 @HeavyHockeyNet It was blocked long before Knoblauch came around in my opinion

@lotsryan @HeavyHockeyNet Was it Holland who blocked Broberg's development in the NHL... or was it Coffey/Knoblauch when they sent him to the AHL at the beginning of the season? Broberg definitely improved in the AHL, and had an excellent NHL playoff. In retrospect they should have matched.

@lllaurenA Who knew baseball was so violent??

Never settle. Always aim higher. You can always hurt yourself more if you try hard enough.

@AdamRiz @AustinHockeyYT @HeavyHockeyNet To be clear, the claim I made is that the team's issues this season were far more player quality and execution based than coaching based.

@lotsryan @AustinHockeyYT @HeavyHockeyNet Maybe, maybe not. But you've made a claim: KK is a good coach. The biggest counter is: How come they got way better when a different one came in? And "We aren't in the room", "rest" and "small sample" aren't really great explanations.

New for @HeavyHockeyNet: Counterpoints to criticisms of Knoblauch If you're looking for content that confirms your bias, then this isn't the piece for you. #LetsGoOilers #Oilers heavyhockey.com/2026/05/07/cou…

@AdamRiz @AustinHockeyYT @HeavyHockeyNet I'd be more willing to buy into that narrative if the Oilers had gone on another run here. PC was on the bench for the playoffs, and all the same issues that persisted in the regular season reared their ugly heads in the playoffs as well

@lotsryan @AustinHockeyYT @HeavyHockeyNet The 50 game segment in KKs NHL career without Gully or Coffey and his results were bad. The second PC returned they went back to normal. That needs a real explanation.

@BlueBullet1981 @NHL_Sid Oh?

@lotsryan @NHL_Sid Rumblings are that you got that counterpoint article out just in time.

Podkolzin-Draisaitl-Kapanen TOI: 130 GF%: 79 xGF%: 52 Podkolzin-McDavid-Savoie TOI: 115 GF%: 56 xGF%: 57 Podkolzin-Draisaitl-Savoie TOI: 106 GF%: 86 xGF%: 56 Savoie-McDavid-Hyman TOI: 76 GF%: 57 xGF%: 58 Podkolzin-McDavid-Hyman TOI: 51 GF%: 80 xGF%: 52

@AdamRiz @AustinHockeyYT @HeavyHockeyNet Using that 5 gm segment as an argument against KK and for PC is invalid because there were other factors at play (namely rest) and the required information isn't available since we weren't in the room. Also, sample size. Same issues persisted in playoffs with PC on board.

@AdamRiz @AustinHockeyYT @HeavyHockeyNet And I'm telling you that it's not possible for us as outsiders to conclusively prove which factor was responsible for that 5 game stretch you referenced (KK, PC, or rest) because we weren't in the room. I can't prove it was KK. You can't prove it was PC.
