You know, a guy loves to rag on the Oilers but it's because it's so easy.
For some reason I found that the only hockey on tv was the Habs / Oil game, so I started to watch it. I think part of me was curious how in the hell these idiots drafted 3 top overall picks, have 4 extremely gifted young forwards and yet still struggle so badly. It's pretty amazing they are still bad. And they are!
The main thing I noticed is no puck support. Like, at all. If an Oiler gets the puck, it's him vs. the world. The other players are like not even on screen! I don't even know where they go, they look like they just skate away.
God, what an awful, awful, terrible team. It's really quite something. And hilarious.
