I can’t do OilersNation for the sole reason of not wanting to support anything Jason Gregor has a hand in. And yes, that includes DFO.

Your choice. I don't agree with everything Gregor says but he does get access to players that as a fan, I would never get so its a way to get information and perspective from players which I think is important.

There are people in here I don't particular care for in here but you have to take the good with the bad if you don't want to miss out on potentially good information.

Jason Gregor gets access because he's a suck up to the Oilers organization. Carries water like nobody's business. And what makes it worse with Gregor that some of the others is that he likes to pretend that he doesn't and gets mortally offended by the suggestion that he does.

And despite all that access, it's pretty meagre information he (or most of the other meat) gets, because they're petrified to ask any hard questions.

How do you know he gets mortally offended? Do you have proof?

I used to listen to Gregor but at some point I think I had my fill and stopped. I think he saw Stauffer’s career path and decided to emulate that. Ironically after Dan Tencer left the Oilers I found him to be less insufferable on twitter. I think Gregor and him have swapped objective/pander roles in some weird cosmic Oilers dance.

I will listen to the DFO because I like Frank, but I do not have much time for Gregor's takes. Especially his defiance on ref's using game management. I texted in to the show one day when when he was on his soap box and still working for 1260, and he wanted me to call in, but I knew I would sound like a bumbling idiot so I declined. I do not respond well to fast paced conversations.

My point was coming from my experience in reffing games, the way Hockey Sask gives feedback and from a few WHL linesmen that I know. The instructions given do not say to manage the game, but in the same breath you are told to be aware of the score, lopsided penalties to one team and not every penalty needs to be a penalty. Gregor dismissed everything I said and talked down to me (via text, so it I will admit that it was my interpretation). Plus he defends Mark Spector to no end.
