VIDEO: "This organization is where it's at. The situation is the situation"

Former Oilers head coach Dallas Eakins addressed the media today in his exit speech and he gave his two cents on the state of the franchise and it's future. "This organization is where it's at. The situation is the situation," he said. "The fans of this organization have suffered greatly, but if anyone's going to find a solution, it's (general manager) Craig MacTavish. I know that for sure. His commitment to this organization. His pain that he goes through every day. Looking. Trying to make this organization better. He will get it done. He will. I know he will." "When I came in here, my long-term goal was to be a winner by the time the team got into the new building (three years), he said." At the same time, he admitted to coaching the team to win in the present, and may have moved too quickly in terms of crafting a system when he should have focused more on the fundamentals. Despite his efforts. the Oilers have still not qualified for the playoffs since 2006, and fans are beginning to grow restless and frustrated. Understandably so. [iframe id="" mode="normal"]
