There was a long cheer for Draisaitl's 100th point, but no standing ovation. That's a huge accomplishment, and one that he may never do again, and it seemed so weird that the crowd all stayed in their seats when that was announced.
I think this decade has damaged Oilers fans as proper fans of the team. We saw that in the playoffs a couple years ago - they just didn't provide the same lift that the fans did in 2006 - they could be easily discouraged by a goal against, they could be silenced.
Compare that to 2006, where the fans just got louder when the other team scored. It looked almost reassuring to the team...there's a goal against, but that's not stopping the buzz...it's just starting even louder chants.
It's kind of sad to see the damage that has happened to everything surrounding this team from being this bad for this long...

Only one solution I guess. Don't suck for a decent period of time :)
I can't blame any fan that is afraid to really feel good about this team, because they think a letdown is right around the corner. Probably need to put together 3-4 years of consistent not-suckiness to break that mentality.
