Could've been 1st star had stripes not knocked the puck into the high slot on a platter for the Oilers to get a mercy goal last Monday.
And agents use the Oilers as a bargaining chip becuase they are likely always to be the high (desperate) bid in situations like that between teams, with no intention of landing there.
Markstrom and most top tier free agents in their prime have been avoiding the Oilers for the better part of two decades, no matter how big the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Ask Zachary Hyman if he could have a do over.
