The Oilers will always have a loser culture but they have 2 guys elite enough to almost overcome it.
Good players win.

Eichel and Reinhart were the 2 players drafted in Buffalo the years McDavid and Draisaitl were drafted by the Oilers. They couldn’t get Buffalo to win unlike McDavid and Drai in Edmonton but Eichel and Reinhart are both key players on teams that won the cup. They are good players who won but they couldn’t do it in Buffalo.
