Nice to see some house cleaning, but he's come and gone and it's been the same thing the whole time. This is equivalent to moving Chia out in my mind. Will not make a difference.

I'm glad he is gone. He showed himself to be a spiteful disruptive douche in his short GM run. Crapping on Dubs before the season even started, firing Krueger by skype after they agreed to look for an associate coach. His endless attempts to try to excuse himself and Eakins from blame by tossing players under the bus, and even Nelson eventually after he was forced to fire Eakins. So many efforts by him to take a dump on whatever Nelson did to give himself credit and try to make Eakins look better. He had a big mouth too, likely leaking all kinds of internal stuff after he was kicked out of the GM job up until he's finally off to Russia.
I would probably rank him as the #2 OBC influencer behind Lowe. The team did suck while he was gone, but they were sucking on purpose. He intentionally came back when the OBC thought the tank time was done and there was nothing but greatness to come, and he played a huge role in creating a new disaster. Smart move by Holland to pressure MacT out 1st.

This is a net positive. One less idiotic voice in the room, suggesting that they sign every 6th defenceman available and hope one turns in to Chris Pronger. One less voice in Katz's ear, telling him that if he was still GM he would be doing better because he'd be making a trade every 10 days...
I'm happy to see him make his BOLD exit. I'm a little concerned that it might not be permanent, given the way the Oilers yo-yo these guys, and that the team might be strategizing ways to rehabilitate him and bring him back.
The only real problem here that I see is that you can't hire Todd Nelson as coach now, because we no longer have training wheels for him!

It would be funny if Holland talked to Nelson about the coach job, and he was plainly told there is no way he would consider it as long as MacT was still with the org. Even if we don't hire Nelson, it would be good for Holland to hear from someone he knows outside the org what an arsehat the Oilers still had on the payroll.
