the Oilers now have a most legitimate tally of players in the pipeline.[quote/]
Even if this was true, the Oilers have a history of mismanaging their talent.
Apparently you're unaware of the Katz role in keeping the franchise in Edmonton while being the driver behind the current #1 ranked 'state-of-the art' arena... notwithstanding (also driving) the most significant revitalization of Edmonton's downtown core.
First off, the Oilers were never in danger of moving. Katz have the Investors Group an offer they could not refuse to buy the team. Second of all, I guess you must be unaware of the tactics Katz used to push his arena bid through. It's not like Katz was some kind of Saint that built the new Edmonton arena out of the goodness of his heart. He used pressure tactics to extract a sweetheart deal out of the City of Edmonton to construct the facility.
