Neversummer Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Looks like the Great One is going home. In some sort of VP role. http://www.tsn.ca/gretzky-returning-to-oilers-in-working-role-1.583911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

250Integra Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 As long as he stays away from Coaching... (well the Oilers can't get much worse). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 The American loving sellout is back to Canada! He just went up 2% on my respect meter by taking a job with a Canadian team. Not that he cares about my respect meter lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentSam Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 ... I do not think Chirreli and Gretzky think alike. This must be a move that Katz wants, he always did like "hanging with the boys" from the rumours I heard. Just when the oil looks like it's going to flow again,. they bring in an old guy talkin about the old ways they used to do things. It would be better and cheaper to erect another Gretzky statue, than bring him in for any management role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift-4 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Apparently my big boss had breakfast at a table next to him and Kurri this morning. And she didn't even say 'hi' for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker 67 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Sounds like they're trying real hard to create a winning environment in EDM, but the only thing they've won over the last decade+ is the draft lottery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bookie Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Major trades, a new arena, the Great One coming back into the fold ... can only imagine if they once again finish bottom 5. I hate the Oil but I do have to admit they're probably going to be the most interesting storyline this season, on a team by team basis. Please fail in spectacular fashion!!

Rick Blight Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Just one more guy trying to get on the McDavid bandwagon. Everybody and their dog wants to be associated with McDavid to either re-live past glories or share in the media hoopla surrounding McDavid.

timberz21 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Gotta pay for that new arena. In theory it's a working role...but pretty sure underneath it's just a marketing scam to generate more revenues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuxfanabroad Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Eegaads! Tell Wayne the 80's are done. Bad music, with Boy George in the background, floating around like a mindless-moth. He probably thinks he's Gordon Gecko now..especially back in the small pond(cesspool). After 1 or 2 trips to that urban sprawl-mall, his wife will prob go bonkers, then stateside. Whole province is a fossil fuel-dependent anachronism, glued to past glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cripplereh Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 He has been in the shadows for a long time and like Lucic said he was the reason he signed with the OIL so nothing really new! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
