A combination of the Oilers having a garbage team and their coaches/management not u understanding that load management is a real thing in pro sports now.

The issue seems mostly fixed with Sheahan back in. Holland's strategy of loading the dice for the bottom six seems to have paid off, just to find the best mix of skills and chemistry out there. Things may get even better when Chiasson and Archibald return.

Missing out on watching a generational talent in his prime because he plays for a poorly performing team is your loss, not ours. If you're a fan of hockey, you should watch its stars.
I watch plenty of stars in their prime. On good teams too.

He was still supposed to go 3th? Can't be a stupid player then. You should have had Thcachuk

Ehhhh Poolparty had a rising stock at draft time and was coming off a great WJC.

There was talks that the Jets could possibly take him at 2 and CBJ got laughed at for giving the Oilers their next Kurri to go with their new Gretzky.

I can't say the Oilers made an LOL bad pick with him at 4.
