I'm so happy to see that Lucic is already showing how bad his contract really is and will be in the future.

During the allstar break the Sun had a column on the genius of Chia. I think he's pretty much been an Oilers GM, his big moves are brutally bad his small moves turn out to be ok.

McDavid, Talbot, Maroon and Draisaitl are effectively disguising that this is not a good team overall. And I give credit for getting Talbot and Maroon and Draisaitl is a rare draft pick that turns out well, and frankly I could GM the Oilers and draft McDavid.

With not much on the way that's exciting from their prospect pool and a lack of overall organizational depth, unless they can clone those four guys, the Oilers probably aren't going anywhere, and with their contract situation its going to be tough to improve their team through free agency unless they're willing to move Eberle and or RNH for nothing that involves contract dollars.
