That chick who flashed the cameras perfectly summarizes the Oilers' current state.
All Bust, because she definitely wasn't wearing a Cup.
It just couldn't have come more perfectly full circle.
Now they leave and we get another lost decade or two. It's going to be so beautiful.

As of this moment, the Oilers have $10 million in cap space with 9 roster spots to fill. The average age of their remaining roster is 29.6, with eight of their 14 signed NHL players on the wrong side of 30. They have only 29 players under contract in total, 41 on the reserve list. They pick exactly once in this year's draft before the 5th round, and have already traded away three of next year's picks.
I'm confidently guessing that this core will never come as close to winning again.

McDavid is pathetic for not going out to get the conn smythe. Pathetic.
His dad was super disappointed, had the camera out and was cheering but then nothing... after a LONG delay he mouthed "wow he's not coming out" and then rounded up the family and said "lets go".
Not surprised he played the baby card.

I can't stop laughing. All of this so, so perfect! The 'Peak Sadness' of making it all the way to Gm 7 of the SCF, to get there via a recovery from being down 0-3 and then LOSE. Still no cups for McDrai. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Now lets have a good draft and enjoy the summer.
