They upgraded from abysmal to terrible.

Fan-f*cking-tastic


If Detroit could run x-Seider, Chiarot-Hronek, Maatta-Edvinsson and x was a good 1st pair guy, Detroit’s defence would actually be pretty good, they’re missing that piece right now though

Honestly I don’t think Tkachuk is lasting long in Calgary


I wonder what has gone wrong, they've went promising team to everyone wanting out

Instead of allowing 11 goals they will allow 9

Maybe Edvinsson can turn into this X.

I mean it didn't take long for Seider to make an impact after all.

No sense of sticking around in the Pacific division if you're never making it past the Oilers I suppose.

Speaking of pacific division, Vegas is doing this exact same thing but in reverse.

They chuck out everyone for nothing tears of joy

I’m a big believer that Edvinsson WILL turn into that guy. I don’t think it’ll be next year (Seider did get two years in the AHL/SHL before his rookie year, plus he’s a true #1 which Edvinsson might not be), but I think his size/skating/skill combo is incredible and he should be at worst a reliable #2 and excellent complement to Seider for a long time.

Oilers won the same number of conference final games as the Flames. Pretty cocky for a team that has peaked at the halfway mark one time in 7 years with the best player in the world lol

The important part is they won more of the second round games than the Flames did.

And the face of our franchise didn't abdicate their city for Ohio and a $15M deficit.

You know, I hate the Leafs a lot, but I really hope McDavid goes there in 4 years all of a sudden

These words are a ground of major jinx - and your track record in jinxing is extremely good (or poor, depending who you ask)

2026 McDavid to Toronto with a max contract.

Should it happen you have my written consent to kick Oilers fans while they're down. This is the way.

In the meantime enjoy watching Tkachuk walk himself to UFA and sign elsewhere in two summers.

Change your pfp, I thought you were Boss for a second 😂.

And no the Canes don’t really have the assets that make sense for us to trade Miro , if he leaves for there, it’s because our dumb management keeps playing him with AHL-ECHL caliber defensemen.

That would be a horrible deal for Dallas, he’s 5 years older than Miro and worst. Their defensive games are close, but Miro has better offence by far (while playing under Bones and having literally the worst linemates ever, while Slavin has played with pure offensive dman almost all of his career).

Miro’s playoffs smoke every other dman in the league by far except Makar.

It’s only one year until Tkachuk walks, get it right smh. Also Draisaitl is going to the Sens to create a German mega-line after the Oilers fail to do anything until his contract is up, as per usual smile

No he's going to Detroit since Yzerman is the best GM in the league and he wants to play with the greatest D-man in the league, Seider.

Ben Chiarot will force Seider to demand a trade (also to Ottawa) by then, don’t worry
