Rocksteady wrote on Wed, 30 October 2019 12:30 | I'm puzzled that some are up in arms about the Oilers. This depth issue is not new and was presenting itself way before they were 7and 1. I wanted to ignore that fact and was enjoying the ride but now we just want to throw Holland under the bus because of the lack of movement in the bottom 6?
Come on now people, we know the issues going on with this team.
1.Pete (solved but the ramifications of him being here will be long felt.) .
2. Management (All of them, Bob on down)
3. Cap Space
4. Depth players, farm system was chaotic
5. Players that are playing above their ceiling (like Chiasson)
None of this is new and reading some posts on this thread and I see people flabbergasted over what is being presented. It was all there. All of it.
Holland cannot do much with the salary cap hell he is in now and to yell at him for having this problem doesn't help; it won't help. It befalls management and their multi decade of ineptness.
Guys this will last 2+ years. Connor may ask for a trade then if there is no moves to improvement, it's entirely possible. I hope it will not come to pass but look at this team. The cards are all there, right there on the table. You may not like the answers they are giving you.

In my opinion, it's a lot easier for people to focus on the negative and expect the worst because let's be honest, the Oilers have been lousy for awhile. So if all you do is point out the negative and expect the worst, in a way there is no way of you being wrong. The Oilers previous resume is bad so it's easy pickings and impossible for someone to argue the past because the results speak for themselves. On the flip side, if the Oilers do end up being remotely decent, no one will give the negative person crap for jumping on the bandwagon.
So it's a win win situation for those who set the bar very low.
