Just so visiting Oilers fan's don't get the idea that it's just us that thinks they do things the wrong way this is Scott Burnside's (ESPN) opinion on how the Oilers operate;
Quote:
The moves come two days after the Oilers made talented young center Leon Draisaitl the third overall pick in the 2014 draft. Does Gagner’s departure open the door for Draisaitl to join the Oilers next fall when the 2014-15 season begins? Perhaps.
The Oilers certainly haven’t been shy about rushing top picks into the NHL life. The results speak for themselves as the Oilers haven’t made the playoffs since going to the 2006 finals.
