I fully admit I might be in the minority. I really enjoy watching the Oilers lose, I hate seeing them win, but I don't get much enjoyment talking about how bad they are.

The Oilers took "luck" to a whole other level with McDavid.
Those pieces of crap sucked so bad they drafted 1st overall 3 straight years, so the league changed the draft odds to lessen their chance of continuing to win lottery while finishing 29th/30th in the league.
Well for once those despicable pieces of garbage didn't finish 29th/30th and ended up lucking out with the improved odds from finishing a little higher in the standings to snag a generational talent.
It's pathetic, and nothing like the Flames drafting Monahan, Bennett, Tkachuk or Gaudreau.
