What should be freaking you out is that they could END UP in the bottom 5 AGAIN. And they will. With McDavid. Nurse. Dreiseitl and all the number one and high end draft picks over 8 years. Ummm...don't yah think you should be getting better? To be hoping for a bottom 5 pick to try and win another lottery. Really. What for? You gonna take Austin Matthews. Where does he fit? You gonna take a D-Man. Is he ready to play? Ummm...no. Don't blow it up? I want to laugh. But I cry. There's nothing more to be said, that's already not been said. It is the saddest state of affairs in all of pro sport. And not one person in the entire organization will do a damn thing about it. I just pray to the hockey gods that anyone. Anyone. Other than Edmonton wins the lottery. Then we'll be able to see Austin Matthews at least have the chance to develop into a star the rest of the NHL can enjoy. And to Connor McDavid. We're all sorry.

Bravo!

Wow and I thought we Flames fans were rambling nut jobs on the Oil blog...
- geta02it

I just presumed he was a Flames fan.

I'm actually a hockey fan. And I know I speak for thousands of them. We're really, really tired of the Oilers sucking every year; hording the best young players on the planet; then do nothing with them. We all lose. And the NHL has to do something about it. Pronto. You as an Oilers fan should demand it of your team.
- Huntley

I disagree, if you get 5 1st round picks, they combine like voltron .
Dont you take that away from me

I'm as sick of the losing and the high picks as anyone.
How the (frank) can I demand anything of the Oil? I don't have Katz's # and Chiapet has exactly knocked on my door.

Edmonton is a small market team. Not going to the games will absolutely hurt them financially. Don't buy merchandise. That will hurt them. Ask your friends to do the same. Start a movement to fire PC. Twice before the trade deadline the Oilers openly said, with PC's backing, that the evaluation of the team was complete. Anyone with a brain would have thought moves were about to happen. Nada. And I fully expect he'll do nothing before or during the draft. He needs to go if he does nothing. Or just continue to lose. Soon the Oilers won't be able to count on the draft because of changed format. Then it will be too late. Never ending spiral of crappy players and crappy results. Free agents won't come. Fans will THEN finally give up. Small market team loses its team to Seattle. Shame.

I don't think it's possible for you actually be to be less informed than you are. It's rather impressive actually.
The best part is, you think you have a rational pov here
