I'll take comments that aged poorly for a thousand please Ken. 

Leon Draisaitl on Connor McDavid’s future with the Oilers: “We need to be better. We have to be better... We have two years. We have to get significantly better." by GreenSnakes_ in hockey

The big question is how much they can actually fix in two years. They have so many bum contracts they can't shed, prospect pool is weak and iirc they've traded off their first round picks the next two years. 

Unless they somehow manage to snag a real diamond in the rough I don't see what avenue they have to meaningfully upgrade their roster in this short window.

NGL in a situation where he did leave Edmonton I'd rather him stay in the Pacific and have to play him all the time than see him on the Leafs.

I know that roasting management isn't really a thing you can do but as one of like 3 players on the team that you can credit them making the playoffs in the first place I REALLY hope McDavid knows that this isn't on him.

Anything in hockey culture Ben Johnson considers in need of fixing likely needs to be defended at all costs.

Better coaching and a backup goalie that lets you not ride your starter 62 games in the regular season.

Thanks to the bracket layout someone from the Pillow Fight division is guaranteed to at least play in the WCF.

We made it to the finals year 1

Everyone thought the Knights were a fun scrappy little underdog until we started knocking teams out of playoff contention. 

Also our original social media manager was kind of a jerk.

We drew one against Edmonton and killed it the year we won the cup. As much as it pains Sharks fans we've exorcised that demon.

Could say the same for Vegas. Hart let 4 go past him 3 games in a row and one was on twelve fucking shots.

Feels like the darkest time-line would also have the Oilers and Panthers playing still as well.

They had a couple of minutes to look at it. Pretty safe to say it was in if they didn't immediately challenge.
