5 years of McDavid's career, and 4 of them were spent with no playoffs.

Drasaitl has been there the whole time, but has the team gotten ANY better in those 5 years? Seriously, what have they done?

Even when you read comments from fans, the most popular argument is to put the Draisaitl line back together, with Yamamoto and RNH. And even Oiler fans present it as the DRY line as the top line, and McDavid with 2 plugs as the second line.

So think about that: after FIVE YEARS with McDavid in the lineup to build around, the best current plan is to have McDavid on the second line with 2 plugs.

He has every right to be fed up.
