And the goofball that sat on the sidelines FOR AGES and watched this twit dismantle what little depth they had behind 97 and 29 is still the face of this management team.
For the love of god. Fire Bob now.

(And Kevin).
Looking through some stats again and it is goaltending that really did us dirty, no matter what the other flaws on this roster are. The Oilers outshot and outchanced the ‘Hawks through the series but had the worst goaltending stats of anyone in the play-in. Smith’s stats were horrendous, but Koskinen was still among the very worst too. 15 goals in 4 games is pretty respectable (would have been better if depth guys did anything) but they could not get the saves.
I wonder if they could escape Koskinen’s deal if a KHL team wants him...
|
Koskinen was okay during the season though. I don't know if he'll be a bonafide #1, but he can one half of a tandem... provided that second half is better than Mike Smith.
I hesitate to turf someone strictly on a four-game series; that's Chiarelli-esque when he shipped Eberle out. Koskinen wasn't good enough this series, but he probably was during the season.
That said, they need another goalie, and they need him to be a 1A to Koskinen's 1B. I'm concerned Koskinen's contract may make that difficult.
Matt Murray (or Tristan Jarry) would be an ideal target, but I don't know if they have the assets to get that done or not. Grabbing Jarry and Reimer last summer would be preferable to re-signing Koskinen and signing Smith.
|
The problem is that his contract isn't that of an adequate back-up - which might be where he is. He's also on the wrong side of 30, so I don't anticipate him developing much.
If we want to get a new starting goalie, Koskinen's contract is an issue so while we don't NEED to dump him, it would be nice to free up that money. I think we can probably find an equivalent netminder cheap.
Is Murray a great replacement? Really tough year in Pittsburgh this year. It's a gamble, although maybe one worth making if you can get him for the right price. I definitely think some of those teams with goaltending dilemmas are the best target. There's too many good goalie in NYC for the Rangers too...
