Funny and tone deaf. Oilers-bought Sportsnet pumping your tires doesn't make the country, bud.
The only hyping I've seen is from people who were already Oiler fans. If you go to a bar and there are no drunks in Oiler jerseys, no one cheers or reacts.
There are a few casuals who have said "I guess go Edmonton" but that's after they cheered for Vancouver in round two who were their original choice. They don't really don't come off as invested, probably because you take one look at that team and your gut tells you this is just a gross collection of individuals that happen to play north of the border.
