It's definitely a cumulative effect as most of the league wanted nothing to do with Kane but the Oilers did. Jake Virtanen received exactly one PTO from an NHL team. Guess who? Corey Perry fresh of a contract termination for something that broke the Hawks rules of a "
professional and safe working environment" signed and re-signed. Naturally we are going to criticize and mock the Oilers because they are our hated rival, but from the view of a neutral observer this is getting a bit much as there's a clear pattern.
