The writing was on the wall for a few seasons now. Esp with Drai blowing up in the past two years (and getting paid), and hearing Bennett down about it.
Looking back in the Draft really we cant say we missed out on anyone else Drafting 4th. Not a great draft for the first round. You cant say we could have had Pastrnak because he was never going to be drafted top 5.
When I watch him play I cant see how he was drafted as high as he was. I watched Drai in Red Deer his draft year and I thought he would never be the player he was today...Its about opportunity and ceasing it. Bennett never did this but to be fair the flames have been deeper and a better team then the oilers for decades.
