GM Lozinski sends a message

GM Lozinski came through on his word Thursday Evening, shipping out Ryan Getzlaf and John Toews, as well as RYan Murray and numerous other prospects.

Coming to Edmonton are Evegeni Malkin, Marian Hossa, and 2 1st round picks in the upcoming entry draft.

" 1-4-1 to start the year? Are you kidding me?" Stated a furious GM Lozinski." Hopefully this team will now realize that failure is not an option. If you dont wanna play, then you can leave."

The Oilers reluctantly gave up John Toews to the Boston Bruins. " John Toews is an elite player, but his 7+ million cap hit next season would have led to many complications for our team. We want to keep our team together for the next few years."

The Edmonton Oilers also stripped Tony Lydman of his captaincy tonight. "Leadership is earned, not given" Stated GM Lozinski. " Marian Hossa will be our new captain and will hopefully bring some stability "
