From a league wide standpoint, I've found this year to be uninteresting. Rarely tune into OOT games, just briefly watch the Oilers and post in these threads occasionally.

Am I just getting old and bitter?
I mean, maybe. This year has been pretty good overall imo.

Good batch of youngsters with Hutson breaking records for an O6 team, Celebrini looking legit and Michkov is fun as hell. Ovi goal watch and the caps being a wagon, which surprised many. 4 nations was great. Good playoff races with fun teams to root for, like CBJ. Some fun drama with rivals, with JT/Petey in Van, and the Avs trading Rantanen.

Maybe it seems less interesting with how much of a disappointment it has been for the Oil. Idk if there is any bright spot here this season besides Leon.
 
This should show you what kind of supporting cast the oilers have built around 2 generational players. This should be an average team without the top 2 guys- but instead it’s a bottom feeder that struggled against the sharks and kraken.
Cmon
Buffalo is beating teams right now. It is what it is right now. I was worried about making playoffs with these injuries . Take MacKinnon, Makar, and any ther top 5 of Avs, how do they look?

We have zero speed or skill to break LA's trap with the lead. Not with this lineup. Just zero poise and finesse once we get the puck into the zone. Every sequence is a bobbled pass, panic throw away, someone not ready to receive a quick pass...etc.

Not reading into this much given the injuries, but it's sad to see us generate next to nothing with the guys that we have
