Not asking about your private info.. just using you analogy which says us Oil fans just got dumped.
This one:
You've won 3 rounds since 2011 Finals. You also got eliminated by the Oilers a few months ago. The Oilers won more rounds in Spring then the Nucks have in over a decade.

I'll take our recent 'dumping' over this.
I'm fiarly certain the Nucks have never eliminated the Oilers from the playoffs????
It would be a battle for sure Would make for a much more entertaining regular seasonThey would not even be a playoff team in the Atlantic.
Nor to mention they still only have one NHL quality blueliner in Ekholm. In addition, despite e advanced age, they lack veteran leadership to counteract the impact of having a locker room cancer wearing the C. After the top 6, this is a historically bad team.Their bottom 6 don't scare anyone. This team is even more top heavy now than they were last year. Upgraded their top 6 in expense of their D and bottom 6.
Podkolzin couldn't even crack the Canucks lineup the last 3 years. Was likely headed overseas if the Oilers didn't sign him. Ryan and Brown are barely NHL calibre players. They wouldn't crack the lineup on any contender
Perry and Henrique will have to be used as top 6 guys when injuries occur. Yikes.

Seeing how ashamed McDiver's parents were after he proved he wasn't man enough to accept the Conn Smythe was pretty close.I haven’t seen the last two games, but let me just say this...watching Edmonton lose Game 7 and the horrified oiler fans faces was one of the most satisfying experiences of the year. Fully deserved. In fact, I think I’ll watch them again right now on youtube.
What's going to be real interesting is if the refs stop falling for all the diving now that McDiver disgraced the league with his refusal to accept the Conn Smythe and the hiring of a sex offender for a GM.Well according to Oilers fans this is by far the best and deepest offense in the NHL. Despite having a bottom 5 starter and a weak blue line. So I guess they will power play themselves to another cup final. Have to have a lot of luck again on your side.
I dunno but the clock has started. Tick tock tick tockWhen does McDavid pull the plug on Knoblauch?
''We don't need Broberg''
He barely played for them last season, but I agree he was a key future piece that they let walk.They may have needed Broberg
