It is not lost on many of us,there is a 2 season window to win and that includes this one. Neither year looks good for them. After that Drai and Mcdavid are up in successive years,even if the oilers win they may leave, and almost guaranteed they leave if they don’t. Even if they stay, unless they take massive discounts(and why would they?) they are aging and still haven’t won.
This experts weren’t wrong in some ways, the Oilers should’ve been able to put together a winner with what was gifted. What the experts didn’t count on was the absolute ineptitude of having chiarelli followed by holland destroying that chance.
