Getting generational players is an investment into building fanbases. A lot of these guys were 8 or 9 years old when McDavid came into the league. Even in the LML here when I go to my kid's school, a lot of the kids around that age wear Oilers and McDavid gear. It shouldn't be a surprise that the current draft class has Oiler fans in it, especially if they are from Alberta and Canada in general.
It's sad, but just reality unfortunately.
