Time For Tambellini To Throw In The Towel on Stortini?

Posted 12:36 AM ET | Comments 7

I am a die hard Oiler fan, and hate to knock my team, but after Zack Stortini decided to "dance" with Dallas Star grinder Krys Barch you would think it would be a quick wrestling match and the game would continue. Well not exactly Barch gave Stortini a few good shots and the tied each other up for a bit then Barch fed him his lunch. The tipping point for me was Zack Stortini didnt even fight back, he tried to hug Barch and turtle. If your going to fight at least show some effort that was an absolute embassment, if Stortini is going to do that why have him in the lineup? He is a waste of a roster spot for the Edmonton Oilers if you want a fighter put a guy in that will fight and show some effort like Steve Macintyre! In my opinion Zack Stortini is a big joke and a laughing stock of the NHL, when does the Oilers organization finially say enough is enough? Oilers GM Steve Tambellini should place this so-called tough guy on waviers and put an end to this joke in Edmonton!

What do you guys think?

That was an embarrassment for both Stortini and the Oilers. I was embarrassed for the team. I'm afraid he seems to have lost his taste for fighting. I guess after you take too many punches that will happen. Unfortunately SMacIntyre cant' skate as well. The Oilers need to get a skater who can fight. That is the answer to the problem IMO.
