It is an issue on just about any hockey forum you care to note (check out any given reddit thread about either the Oilers or this year's top two prospects, for instance.) But yes, the Oilers are a significant root cause of it. When you have a team whose plan basically amounted to failing upward get three #1 overalls in a row and are STILL drafting top five every year with a chance of getting another #1 pick, that is going to rankle anyone's feathers.
The Oilers are a league-wide embarrassment.
