Subtle roster tweaks don't take much, the problem is this management team hasn't shown that they have the balls to part ways with certain players. I was surprised that they let Roloson go.
No argument from me but it really wouldn't make much of a difference.
I agree with you there. Honestly though, DSF, the frustration in regards to this situation isn't even so much about on-ice results. It speaks of lazy management and not being able to make the difficult decisions when they need to. I have no doubt that the Oilers are giving MacIntyre a bit more time because of his character and the fact that so much was made last year of this being his dream.
He's a good guy; a great guy, actually. But management needs to make decisions like this.
Moreau is done. I'd say even a healthy Pisani is done as well. He won the lottery with that playoff run and cashed in big. He's really not even a checker. Doesn't hit. Can't score.
Time to bury the likes of Moreau and Pisani in the minors. This team lacks leadership in a huge way. NO effort whatsoever.
Once again, if I thought Reddox and Potulny could jump start this team, I might be willing to listen. I see no reason to believe that's the case, however. If you think they could trade to get someone that could help... that would make a lot more sense to me.
Same Ole Same Ole They play like ass for 50 minutes then finally play desperate in the last 10 minutes when down by 2-3 goals Where have we seen this before?
This team needs to make a trade to shake up the lineup Gilbert, Grebeshkov, Moreau especially, Pisani, Stortini to an extent, Nilsson and lately O'Sullivan are absolutely useless out there Some of those guys need to be moved, i've seen enough already
I don't know why my day to day emotions are based on this team. I really wish they weren't. I should know better after all these years yet I can't help it. I feel like crap.
Pisani, Moreau, Stortini, MacIntyre, Grebeshkov, Gilbert, Strudwick, Staios(not saying based on this year obviously), Nilsson, Horcoff..........get rid of them all!
