Taylor Hall is a top 15 player in the world, maybe the Oilers shouldn't have freaking traded him.
Maybe they should stop doing stupid roster decisions and they might (gasp!) actually for once have a functional roster that can perform and doesn't have monstrous bottlenecks in its production.
But yeah Oilers, go ahead and do the Hall thing to Draisaitl. Blame him for everything and chase him out of town for probably pennies on the dollar. See how well that turned out for this franchise last time.
Maybe for ONCE this franchise can ask itself if its being fair to these players. Is that level of winger depth reasonable to ask Draisaitl to have success with? Was Dubnyk given fair help? Was Schultz? Was Hall? Maybe it's not the freaking players fault.
Drai isn't being asked to carry the team. He's very much second fiddle behind the best player in the galaxy. If he can't produce, hell, if he can't even tread water, then there's a serious problem. Moaning about the stupid Hall or Eberle trades won't fix it.
