This is the most bush league thing ever, even for Edmonton. I’m sure they aren’t the only team in the league to pre-crest a jersey for a player they’re interested in, but to actually sell them to fans? It’s seriously like taking out advertisement for how many times they failed.

Easily the most embarrassing franchise in pro sports. No other team even comes close.

I hear there are two doors into the Oilers' dressing room: one labelled ‘Connor & Leon’, the other labelled ‘Servants' Entrance’.

They should have been purchased by the players' respective coaches and used as a motivational tool. Fear is a powerful motivator.

It almost seems like tampering for a team to make jerseys with players who are property of another team on them and then release them to the public.

I totally see that as tampering. The weak NHL won't do anything, however.

Do any of the players have criminal records? No? Oilers not interested. That’s what the oilers call plausible deniability, baby!

Notice how nobody ever takes Puljujarvi to dinner. They just get Domino's to deliver to the dressing room after the game while they're heading out.

Virtanen is to Rantanen as Huberdeau is to Mario Lemieux?

My Gawd, the Oilers media is embarassing. I'm sure the fans in dumpsville are waiting with baited breath for Principes' next article "the brands of toilet paper that Connor and Leon buy".

Seems weird they would have premade jerseys in the first place prior to a trade happening. Players get to pick their own numbers right? Some of these aren't even the same numbers they wore with their previous teams.
