It's a Finnish source with some translated text below.

-They don't say anything or talk to you about why you're not playing. At least the Oilers never did. That's what annoyed me the most, Pakarinen said to MTV sport
-Coach never gives you a reason or reasons. You have to figure it out why you're sitting in the pressbox by yourself. Also in general the coach and GM talked to us very little. It's almost like they have some top secret information. I think it's unfathomable, Pakarinen continued.
-Communication should be more open, like it is in Europe. Here it goes like it should. In the NHL it feels like the coach is one great ego. Of course the coach will talk to the players about random things, but never about anything personal or things related to your own game.

There is definitely a pattern. Auvitu said similar things. Joe Thornton said this before McLellan was fired:

Todd has to talk to his family. Maybe he should talk to this family as well in here.

One day I want to make a list of every damning thing a former player/coach has said about the organization since 2006. It's a long list. Off the top of my head there is Ryan Jones, Devan Dubnyk, Eric Belanger, Tom Renney, Sheldon Souray, Ryan Whitney, Ladislav Smid, Patrick O'Sullivan, Auvitu, now Pakarinen...I am sure there is more. Clearly there is still a big culture problem here.
Clean house or bust
