I'm just glad the Oilers and their brilliant management found a way to unload such a useless player and his boat anchor 2.75M salary! Not like they could have used a proven playoff performer d-man anyway.

Hey. Sacrifices had to be make to acquire a crappier more expensive longer term version of Stuart Skinner! Along with tossing in a 2nd round pick.

Hart is playing for his entire future in the NHL. Definitely get the motivation. I hope he gets completely blown away by Colorado to put a stain on his finish this season. Pacific division was truly a pillow fight. We made the ducks look way better than they actually are by basically playing no defense. Time for some real competition for Vegas.

I do believe our injuries were a factor as well. The Oilers never even looked average during that series. This team, if healthy, should have beaten the Ducks and would have pushed Vegas in a series, and then the Av's would have steamrolled us in 4.

Yeah, if McDavid's was going, we probably still outscore our defensive issues.
I couldn't see us passing Colorado or Minny. We would have needed to pray for Dallas to somehow make it to the conference finals again and look totally inept offensively to help us out, but they did it against Minny already.

So, Vegas took their belief they should get special treatment a bit too far.
They were outraged that McNabb would get a 1 game suspension for a blatant interference play that caused an injury. So outraged that Torts decided he doesn't need to do his media appearances, even for the end of a series.
100k fine and loss of Vegas's 2nd round pick in 2026 came down as the punishment.
