FFS you have McDavid and Draisaitl and you're still kicking around the same level as a team that just had two superstars bail on them. The level of managerial incompetence up North is astonishing.

The Oilers have been exactly as advertised. A team with zero depth beyond their 1st line, terrible D, and shoddy goaltending, who's only game plan is to ice McDrai for 25+ minutes a night and try to outscore their problems by diving and flopping for PPs. This is not a recipe for long term success in a sport where depth, elite goaltending, and a commitment to a strong team game are what wins championships. Not individual players.

8 years of McDavid so far and yet they still haven't figured this out. It's hilarious to watch.
