If I was Lafreniere I would be phoning Eric Lindros right now for some advice.

Best thing that happened was Flames losing to Oilers in the Exhibition game, made these losers overconfident going to the series with Chicago.

October prediction: Shea Weber for 1st overall. Trade is 1 for 1

And feeling sorry for their fans always turns to regret later in my experience. They have even a good two weeks and they're in your face saying things.
You said entitled, but I think you meant another word that ends similar that's not polite to use anymore.

Eternally, undoubtedly, purely and putridly Edmonton. Let it happen. Rejoice.

It's only a matter of time until one of these top prospects tells the Oilers straight up not to bother drafting him.

Hopefully this is a turning point for 2020. Only good things from here on out!

I'd be bragging about my "criminal record" in the Oilers' interview.

Schadenfreude

scha·den·freu·de
/ˈSHädənˌfroidə/

Noun

The pleasure derived when Edmonton proves, unequivocally, definitively, and absolutely that they are no good.

Crazy, the 50/50 is now past 8.3M. Wonder if it can hit $10M.
