Personally not going to fall for it. They were saying the same thing about Draisaitl and he still burned us. I'm sure they are probably 'banged up' but it's not going to effect his game too much, IMO.
Team needs to be ready for GM6.
The Oilers media beat is f***ing miserable. This shit is pathetic.
This is the same reporter that wanted Carson Soucy banned for the remainder of the playoffs.
didn't they lose to vegas last time "they were in this situation"
Meh after 2011. I don't want the media covering this team at all. It comes with unneeded baggage.The media treatment of this team has been downright disgraceful.
Everyone loves underdogs and David v Goliath situations. The rags-to-riches rise of the Canucks this season and the Silovs saviour stories literally write themselves. In any sane unbiased media environment, reporters should be falling over themselves to praise this team's story arc. It's just great emotion-based reporting - full stop.
Instead, it's a firehose of how "unlucky" Edmonton has been and how Vancouver has gotten "errant bounces".
CBC especially - as a supposedly national broadcaster - has been transparently tilted.
I get that McJesus and several other high-profile Oilers are Canadian and we have almost none on our squad, but this is about fanbases more than it is about players. They seem to forget that.
So, yeah. As horrifyingly bad as the reffing has been, this media bullshit is almost worse for me.

The narrative is because the Canucks have a bunch of Americans, which don't match up to the gritty, gnarly, picking scabs off the legs so it'll bleed Canadians like the Oilers do. Those stupid memes and media grumping about how having a team full of Canadians is the one you should cheer for is f***ing nauseating.
American hockey players are as just as gritty and worthy than Canadians as well. So that stupid narrative is f***ing lunacy, to the old angry Canadian media.
Same with Europeans. It's going to take a long to get rid of these Don Cherryisms
