Yes, I'm sure the Oilers, who as an organization can barely tie their own skates, who would probably suffocate if you made them aware that they were breathing, were the masterminds of breaking up another team down the road.
The team that needed to give absolutely everything, and still needed absolutely everything to go right for them and wrong for the other team to have a chance, had time to formulate a non-hockey related conspiracy on another team. How friggin delusional can you get?
