I'm reading a lot of emotion in some of these posts, lots of anger on what could have been, lots of anger over reasons why the team couldn't push the last 20. I've seen remarks about blame and major fixes, mostly just trying to mend a broken heart, that's all of us.
It is 2006, 18 years ago, my first run to the cup as an actual Oilers fan watching the team, being in the building, and enjoying the fans. 2024, 18 years later the hurt is the same because the ride felt the same, the Oilers behind in the count they battle back just to make us believe and cannot get the job done.
Gut - PUNCH.
The Oilers will have several new things and I think Jeff Jackson is decisive enough to hire the right GM. He found Knoblauch out of seemingly thin air who made a few crucial calls that swung the series and even the trail to the finals. I bet his next hire may be the same. Well I hope.
It's going to be tough to get back to the show, hopefully it won't take another 18 years.
I'm getting too old for this stuff.

Lot of emotion yes....but when it came down to it...given the crappy ice, injuries, whatever....Oilers had their chances in games 1, 2 and 7 while not burying them. Not taking anything away from Bob but all those PP opportunities in the first two games? Wasted. Blame the crappy slush ice & all but the Oilers made those key adjustments on a similar playing surface in Dallas yet couldn't do it in the next round.
As for the next GM hire, pretty sure JJ's phone is ringing non-stop (or will be upon landing back in Edmonton). I see the situation as JJ taking over the GM position on a 4-6 week interim basis getting past the draft before finding a suitable & hopefully the BEST candidate for this role.
