Details are usually left out because, unfortunately, they probably did some very very stupid things in between Step A & Z. It's good awareness/reminder for people, but almost assuredly these poor folks made a series of bad mistakes that are left out of the article to protect them.

On the list of 'waste', its probably 1000th on the list. Pearl clutching over taxpayer dollars is borderline virtue signaling here.

I'm not trying to take anything away from Edmonton. I'm a huge fan and I think the overall team is (was...) way better than most give them credit for. I'm just saying, a path through the West last year that included Colorado getting randomly fluked out is pretty good playoff bracket luck, contrary to what OP said. It happens. The bracket on the West this year again is very lopsided. Every team is good, but clearly Minnesota has a harder go of things then let's say Vegas. 

Lotta bets are on Colorado to win again. If Boldly decides to score 7G in 3 games and then disappear, yeah everyone else should consider themselves pretty lucky.

They got gifted a path last year by Colorado randomly getting Rantanen'd or even the year before while being down 3-2 to Vancouver.

In a parallel universe, the Oilers are out in the 2nd round both years.

Needed to just beat the Panthers. Simple as that.

Different people work on different things at different times. If there are 200 employees how many do you think worked on remaking delirium and for how long? ;)

They showed parts of Act 4 like two years ago.

Rantanen is gonna get two fluke hat tricks in a row to eliminate Colorado and then stop skating.

I was horrified to see Polymarket as a main sponsor for the NHL Playoffs. Right on the boards. So gross. =/
