No Cups

Please let this investigation take well into October!

What a crapshow, just desperate moves and poor moves at that.

I bet Toronto is looking at us and sees what's happening and say... what a clown organization.



The very definition of insanity is doing the exact same thing expecting different results.

Generally Disappointed.

.. this just in.. now Torts says he's out from Vegas at end of the season..
https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/john-tortorella-announces- departure-during-150457293.html?guccounter=1&guce_referr er=aHR0cHM6Ly9sb3dldGlkZS5jYS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAIi V7g-cNmO8OJF0xlCG0U6h5GShyl8WxhPEcnlA2TmHVfas6ivrlpoNEgaz0MD t83W0ouwDYaxAR5_ZmW7HXGoamnoKFHH3_sMCtPofWbwD4ivfQD2WgFwYotE O1pqRCFLuR_0n4ov3ZaDqD9mWVIzTO71Veo8Tx2p1iNcg6KbF

So does Vega start shopping for a new HC?

OR.. does Vegas tell Cassidy he's under contract and he's back coaching .. Cassidy says f u .. so they then extend Cassidy for another 5 years at $5M per.. and he says.. oh 25M? .. sure OK.. lol


Or.. NHL investigates Babcock.. Oilers forced to pass on Babcock.. then Vegas hires Babcock.. and the NHL says .. well you know.. on second thought.. its all good now.. hire approved!

Nice attempt at some extra motivation to get him a cup before he's out.

Hopefully it fails!

Is this load management for coaches?

yeah...we really really want Babcock. Or Katz does at least. Now in contact directly with the NHLPA to try to sort out issues. Other reporting saying that Babcock already gave all the details to the Oilers and it did not deter us in any way. Basically just trying to find the fastest path between the PA and NHL to get this done.

Nurse asks for a trade.. you think Oilers will come out ahead on this.. extra $9M or so.. but we have Bowman deciding what to do with it after.. He'll sign Murphy for 6 x 7 or Dickenson for 5 x 6 .. can't even feel positive about this ..
