the 7 stages of Oilers grief for the 2017-2018 season. These stages should start on about Jan 1st when they're firmly out of a playoff spot
1) Shock - This wasn't supposed to happen, the cup is our destiny. I can't believe how much the NHL is screwing us. Talbot sucks. Draisaitl is way overpaid at $9 million. Thanks alot me $12 million dollar man.
2) Denial - I can't believe that I let this team of sucks take my money every year. Its unbearable watching all of these teams ahead of us and they don't have a McDavid. No way man, all Oiler fans agree, we have an awesome future. I can't believe that the Canucks are ahead of us.
3) Anger - F you Draisaitl F you Mr 9 million bucks. Screw you Chia, you can't win a trade to save your life and now we're in cap hell. Way to go $12 million dollar man, Maybe you can act like you give a crap. Nice job Talbot you fluky piece of garbage. Trade Nuge he's soft and he doesn't care. Quit screwing us NHL, every game you screw us.
4) Bargaining - Please god, if you let the Oilers be good again I promise not to be a over bearing arrogant jerk, I promise I won't go to opposition fan sites and pretend to be fans of their team while I post my passive aggressive BS.
5) Depression - (sniffling sound). We're done, we're finished, I guess outside of McDavid and Talbot, we're not that good, I can't believe we have Chia as our GM, we're going to be in cap hell and lose trades forever, and we have no prospect depth to help us out.
6) Testing - Its awesome we should get a great draft pick this year to add to Connor. Just think of the riches we'll get at the trade deadline when Chia starts trading the deadweight. At least I have the NFL.
7) Acceptance - Yeah, its not so bad, think about the draft party and the thrill of the lottery ball dropping and the gold card coming up. We're truly building something special up here.
