So they wanted to pay for their shooter by the bottle but only taking one swig out of the brandy constitutes them to only want to pay for the amount consumed??? Uhhh...OK

I totally agree with this.

But then again, the owner telling everyone how he is going to donate the $$$ to charity makes me wAnder about his motives for going to the media.

Hondaracer 01-01-2010 10:51 PM

either way, i'm not feelin this coiler defence going on lulz

Harvey Specter 01-02-2010 12:00 AM

I'm sure Pat Quinn must be happy with this story.

JKam 01-02-2010 12:10 AM

lol upon reading the TSN article I retract my comments from before. Although the charity part is probably bullshit and the whole story is for publicity.

That's maybe the saddest part, Quinn is one of the classiest guys on the planet, not nice for him to be associated with this kind of drama. But then, he doesn't really have any control over the players off-the-ice... that's Kevin Lowe and Steve Tambellini's department.

Harvey Specter 01-02-2010 01:21 AM

He is classy and I think deep down Quinn regrets taking the job. I’ve watched a few of his post game interviews and he seems beyond frustrated with his players, almost like the players don’t listen to him or the coaching stuff.

And imo the Oilers are a complete mess. Yes, their starting goalie is injured but some of the players they have on their team are grossly overpaid. Shawn Horcoff makes $7 million dollars but has 9 goals with a -19. There's no way he's worth $7 million. I think Lowe and Tambellini have a lot of work to do this summer to get the Oilers back on track. They have the right guy behind the bench now it's a question of what players will gel to produce wins.

They're bad luck this year. Overpaid players, Quinn is unhappy, horrific season so far, and a bunch of the players contracted swine flu this year as well. Even the Leafs are topping them. On the upside, they've got good trading assets for next season.

RiceIntegraRS 01-02-2010 02:04 AM

The reason why the players are overpaid is cause no one wants to play there. Oh and Horcoffs contract is front loaded, so he actually makes 5.5mil Average a season with his contract. But definately underachieving at the moment

Harvey Specter 01-02-2010 02:55 AM

One player on the Oilers that I will give credit to for turning around his game this season is Dustin Penner.

it doesnt matter if the contract is front loaded or not, he's not producing and thats all it matters.

Why Lowe is still running that team is beyond me!

got no choice, no one is going to tag on the huge contracts that horcoff, moreau, penner, vishnovsky and sourray have

IF those 5(well penner is) were producing and bulin was back, then maybe they would be successful.

Now all I need is the nucks to win today cuz its my bday
