I hear you, and mostly agree. You've gotta hope the team's fanbase isn't so far gone that a decent podcast could pop up that included criticism of the team (e.g.: nepotism hires, a poor arena deal, a creep of an owner that's using taxpayer funds to build a development empire in the city, the Evander Kane signing ignorant of off ice issues, Bob Nicholson being involved with the team after long term issues at HC were uncovered, the numerous ex-players that got bad medical advice, the fact CM97 didn't want to use our doctors, how our poor management has nearly wasted the prime of two talents the equal of Malkin / Crosby, the coaching carousel, the lack of defensive players, LTIR / Retirement dealings to circumvent the cap, the rift in the team between Connor and his crew and everyone else etc, etc). A career could be made doing a long form expose on this team. Add in the complete control and capture of the media, and you've got a block buster in the making. The factory of sadness North is must watch / listen.
Anyway the last time I lost hope on this team 5-14-6-1 popped up on the lottery and we were saved. This year we've got a great chance at winning it all too...something to put in my koolaid for another season. :)

I think there's no shortage of good bloggers who grew up Oilers fans, and some of them starting a podcast? Sure - that could definitely happen. The chances of them getting a lot of access to the team though is almost nil. The Oilers aren't interested in allowing themselves (read management and ownership) to be criticized.
FWIW, my expose wishlist is significantly different than yours!
