Holland is old school washed up. Some of his decisions over the last half decade or so are proof to that. Regardless Holland is moving to Vice President. Why would he leave now, too rooted in that organization

The hotshot is McCrimmon in Vegas. Vegas still being in the playoffs is most likely the reason the Oilers haven’t announced a GM yet

Holland is washed up at 63, but Mccrimmon is a hotshot at 59. Makes perfect sense

Holland is washed up. Is what happens when too long on the job.

McCrimmon is a clean slate, fresh. A new pair of eyes

1. McDavid
2. Eichel
3. Marner
4. Rantanen
5. Barzal
6. Aho
7. Boeser
8. Connor
9. Chabot
10. Werenski
11. Provorov
12. Meier
13. DeBrusk
14. Konency
15. White

Aho and Boeser are still the biggest steals considering where they were drafted

With what's transpired with the outburst of US college players in the last few years, I wonder if a Boeser would still be there
at 23 now?

Not sure, but the scouts tend to really zero in on a prospects skating as how they rank and Boesers skating was constantly under the microscope so I doubt he moves up much

Top 10 for sure. A toss up in a group of Aho, Werenski, Chabot, Connor and Boeser. But Blob don’t see it that way cause he hates the Canucks

Boeser would be with Aho as the best fwds. Werenski probably worth more due to being a top pairing offensive dman. Chabot is a 2nd pairing guy

Chabot is a future top 10 d man in the league

Maybe. Debatable i suppose.

He piled up 55 points on a high scoring jets squad...played the right way.

I dont really see him being a 10 mill a year 70 point defenseman though.

Its all opinions though...

It’s his first full year in the league. He played for the Senators and the team was a garbage fire
