If the Oilers win I'm going to take a long break from the game. I just can't handle that tanking for generational talent (finally) is the way to go. Yeah other teams also had lottery picks as key components, but with the Oilers that's been their entire strategy. It shouldn't be this way...

They tanked for a good decade, had four first round picks, and 8 straight top ten picks (10 out of 11). The only reason they are here is because eventually they lucked out and got McDavid. It took four first overall picks until they finally hit paydirt. There is very little accomplishment in the team Edmonton has put together.
