That's just not true, go back and look at the offseason posting on this board. It's clear as day the general sentiment was the Edmonton Oilers were, and will continue to be, a top-4 team, and if not inside the top-4 just outside of the top-4... only a slight adjustment or two away from winning the Stanley Cup.Literally nobody has said the Oilers are a top-4 team in the League. (Unless some idiot like Kelly Hrudey did, in which case nobody should have been listening.)
I think I'm going to stop using this particular forum, as it's just a cesspool of negativity or weirdly self-satisfied posturing. When the Oilers win, it's "just win baby!" and "play LaBamba", and when the Oilers lose it's 25+ pages of recycling the same shit as 2018... 2019... 2020... 2021... 2022... Everyone here is an expert of course, and every coach / GM / player is an idiot who can't do anything right.
As for me, I'm quite enjoying this season and I enjoyed the game yesterday. Go Oilers!
That's a down-to-earth perspective because we are exactly where we should be, no better and no worse. I by no means aim to place an embargo on your happiness. Have at it and revel in the spectacular pageant that is NHL hockey.
