You have to think that at some point the NHL is going to have to put a stop to this. How much longer are they going to stand by and watch top end talent languish in the wasteland that is Edmonton?
They keep picking high and getting good players and then these players just waste away in nowheresville.
They are ruining NHL talent and watering down the talent pool and the NHL cannot simply sit idly by and allow this to happen. The Edmonton Oilers exist to the detriment of the league.
Time to bring in soccer-style promotion/relegation. If you win the Calder Cup in the AHL, congratulations, you're going to the bigtime!
