You should have seen McDavid's face when they won. Seemed pretty clear he doesn't want to go there.

Also, Hartley gets fined 50k for England's fighting.

Now they're going to simply rely on him without making any smart moves. At least Toronto is firing folks and trying to make a difference.

Anyway, I hope we make this 1-1.

The fans won't mind that either. They're already sweeping the last decade of failure under the rug.

Meanwhile, Arizona fans worry about potential relocation.....

Arizona could've used him to generate interest. That franchise sure needs something.

Honestly, why do you hate McDavid so much that you'd not mind have him dealing with MacT and Lowe? :lol:

As long as the Oilers are profitable, nothing will change.

I was listening to TSN and Dennis Beyak was talking about when he met a Coyotes reporter who said most people back in Glendale have no idea who McDavid is. If they keep doing what they've been doing, they're going to end up like Florida in the pre-season.

Also I'm sad.

And when they win a cup in three years how exactly would you like those words prepared before you eat them? Eberle, Draisaitl, and Marincin are going to be moved for a goal tender and a defenseman. The Hawks can no loner afford Seabrook, and would gladly move him for Ebs. Throw in Crawford and a decent prospect and they can have Draisaitl, and Marincin, and the Oiler's become an instant contender. Nurse and Klefbom are going to be absolute studs on the blue line.

I don't expect Mac T to be making that pick though. Kevin Lowe will be gone and Bob Nicholson will be taking over. The first thing he does is fire Mac T, and hire Dan Bylsma. Nelson will be a great coach for Mac D.

I've been reading the Arizona section of the HFBoards forums. You can feel the pain those guys are going through. A ton of non-Coyotes fans are also angry too.

They legitimately felt McDavid would be the shot in the arm the Coyotes needed. Now it seems like all they'll get is a bullet in the back of the franchise's head.

Meh, that's what they have been saying about the Oilers for a while now and it still hasn't come to fruition.

I'm rooting for the Ducks-Rangers final. It'd be awesome to have Cali vs NY.

Also, what the fuck is wrong with Subban and the idiots in charge of the NHL? "I accidentally slashed the other team's superstar" is an excuse? That's even worse than "my dog ate my homework!"

Of course they do! However, not really a reason to not be in the poll if they are actually in the playoffs...
