This is great business. Anyone that craps on this is the typical guy on here crapping on any move Holland makes.


To be fair, if you looked at all the moves Holland's made as Oilers GM and crapped on all of them, then you're right like 80% of the time. He has dropped a lot of balls.

I'm not saying that Skinner shouldn't be in the Oilers plans - just that he's got a very small sample size and the Oilers just committed a lot of cap space to him despite the fact he's got virtually no negotiating power.


Seems like Campbell's deal has pooched us twice now. Skinner got to pump his value up because we couldn't afford to keep giving Campbell starts.

Consiquence of weak scouting and analytics bites us again. I was willfully ignoring Campbell's history of poor high danger sav % and trying to be positive about us getting him. Our fan consiquence of poor scouting of player is zero though. People get paid lots in the Oilers org to not keep making mistakes, especially with big ticket signings that can handicap the org for half a decade.

Frustrating, guess we just stick with hoping draft luck can fill every big hole in this org. Should be thankful for Skinner so far. Hope he keeps getting better.
