It absolutely is Vancouver homerism. Or Oiler hate - it certainly isn't objective, you've proven that time and time again you can't be objective about the Oilers.Its not Vancouver homerism, its the fact that he is no better than someone like Myers. He is a liability on defense and his offense is not that good either. If Nurse was a good top 4 dman then Oilers would not have that big of a problem on D.
The Oilers didn't have a problem on D last year with Nurse anchoring the 2nd pair. The Oilers are sort of out a lot of systemic stuff right now, its not all on the defensemen, and certainly not on any one player. Tying it to Nurse alone is pretty ridiculous.
