meh. I was a teen when Gretzky left, so my illusions about players and hockey were dashed years ago. I think the last player I was sad by his leaving was Ryan Smyth when he first left the team. never hated they guy, though. I always hope guys I cheered for do well.
I've now bailed on caring about the team. I was more of a casual fan for a few years but the final straw was the Kane signing.
Be nice if they win something, but whatever.
I find it hard to get invested in a bunch of millionaires playing a game when I have worries about bills and food costs.
I'll still defend Edmonton as a city as I grew up here and it's home, but I don't care to worry about the Oilers.
I still cheer against Calgary sports teams. I don't think that needs to change, though.
