Pretty impressive how Staples is able to such both as a hockey writer and a municipal/provincial affairs columnist.

Oilers fans crave star players that break scoring records more than they crave a winning team and hope alone has sold extremely well in Northern Alberta over the last decade.

Then the Oilers mission will be to get the scoring record back from Ovechkin, with little to no care about the playoffs. On one hand it will be fun to watch them accomplish nothing but on the other hand I am so very tired on their media attention.
I really hope Bedard can steal some of the spotlight away.

I can't see him being greedy enough to go back to Siberia's ugly sister for a few extra bucks, especially when he's making boatloads of other endorsement money. Also with all his media charm, I can't see him not wanting to go to a southern team where he can just do his thing, instead of having the responsibility of saying "let's go" all the time.
