I know this is the Oilers but this isnt the E=NG thread. Try to remain objective.
This loss of these two bottom 6 players is extremely overblown.

They were pretty much the only decent defensive forwards they had and they replaced them with a 31 year old whose missed on average 28 games a year for the past 6 years and someone who hasnt played an NHL game yet
