Gimme a good E=NG question to ask. Like one that comes off as respectful, but subtly disrespectful. And go!

So this happened last week. I thought long and hard about what to say/ask...to be respectful, yet have a subtle jab. There were about 100 ppl in attendance, and when he polled the room, I'd say it was about 70% Oilers fans.
I started off by saying it has been a long 10 years as a Flames fan, white knuckling it since McDavid was drafted by the Oilers. I followed that up by saying "Is it weird knowing that this will be the last season McDavid is in an Oilers jersey".
Second thing I said..."Enough about the Oilers, especially after the last two years. 2004...I have my opinion, but I want to know what those within 'the hockey world' think. Was it in?"
Kevin - Talks about angles of camera and how it wasn't ideal etc., but then stated "yes, I believe it was in, as do most within the hockey world."
Me - "So what you're saying is that the Flames have won the cup more recently than the Oilers have?" (I then quickly proceeded to hand the mic over to someone else and sat down with a "my job here is done" attitude.)
He had a good laugh, as did the room. It was respectful banter, but I felt accomplished hahaha.
