I can’t believe players keep falling for the oilers promises of “you’ll play on McDavid’s line” or “you’ll put up big numbers with McDavid/Draisaitl.” It’s always the opposite because, once the 3rd period comes, it’s McDavid-Draisaitl-Hyman eating up all the minutes. The rest of the guys end up sitting on the bench. There’s always a free agent forward that falls for the pitch from the oilers every season (eg. Skinner last year)
