edmontons biggest problem is they fail to properly develop their players. There was a bit of a backlash here when some the flames prospects were criticized by our management in regards to their complete game. The oiler kids have been developed to play pond hockey rather then NHL hockey and still commit those rookie mistakes in their 4th year. You could see this trainwreck coming for awhile. In the NHL you NEED to be able play defense if you want to be successful.
