Everyone who has a brain can see what was happening this post season.
Established post season standards for officiating & physical play were subverted in order for the league to showcase McDavid.
Was it a fix?
No.
Were the Oilers given a maximum opportunity to succeed based on a special standard of how, when, where McDavid can be checked while he is allowed to relentless complain & embarrass officials…
Yes.

Pretty sure this happens to the majority of athletes after retirement. Work out day in and day out from a kid till almost 40s. Working out isn't there main goal for a career any more and their bodies go " what the ####?" . Nothing to see here. Pluse he's pushing age now so there is that.
