Diamonds Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Wow, I think this is actually a good hire. Too bad for Seattle they lost him though. It's still early but I like the moves Holland has made so far, just wish it wasn't for the Oilers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Knowing our luck Seattle will hire some unknown college coach and he'll be brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanuck Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Pretty 'safe' hire. What will the excuses be this time when the team falters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of hard to get hired when there's no one to hire you? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJockitch Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Old school GM, old school coach. We will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Shift-4 Posted May 28, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2019 I thought McLellan was a good hire. So I am hesitant to say this is a good hire......even though I think it is a good hire. lol 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd. Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 (edited) This is actually a good hire. Dave Tippett's system is going to be very different than what they are used to seeing. Edited May 28, 2019 by Odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmonton has certainly upgraded on GM and coaching, thats for sure. Tippett doesn't have any more tools in the box than Hitch had to play with, so Holland has to get busy if that team is going to make steps, and thats not going to be easy. Hopefully we hear "I have a trade to announce" that gets us Edmonton's 8th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
