Blame Flames ownership because they care more about the arena being an extra 10% full than actually winning Championships. Maybe an Oilers Cup win would be a good thing. It might finally make them realize that winning is more important than the bottom line. These are the moments people remember for decades and create life long fans. No one remembers or cares about all the years you finished 22nd best. You think a single Oilers fan cares about how they got here? They're having the time of their lives watching their team be one win away from the Stanley Cup Finals. Imagine the excitement going into Sunday when you have a chance to close it out at home. Hopefully we get that experience this decade if these clowns decide to prioritize winning over a couple sheckles.
