OUff - that was hard to watch. I think we're getting Marnered boys. https://edmontonjournal.com/sports/hockey/nhl/cult-of-hockey /oilers-connor-mcdavid-edmonton-friedman

Looks that way doesn't it?

The radio and media play is that "let's not read into it", or "where else is he going to go to win?" or "He's signing but a short term deal"

Watching it, his mannerisms, his tone, his posturing.. he's gone.

The team is almost the same as it was last year, nothing else has changed. CMcD's position hasn't changed, nothing changed.

This season should be regarded as McDavid's farewell tour with the Oilers. Until he is signed past this season should be regarded as that.

The very definition of insanity is doing the exact same thing expecting different results.

Generally Disappointed.
