| Hibernia wrote on Wed, 09 October 2024 10:18 | I'm glad the pre-season is over. For two reasons.
1) The pessimists can stop talking about the results from the pre-season. (They don't mean anything. During the Decade of Darkness there were several perfect or near-perfect pre-seasons.)
2) So, we can stop with all the projections of why the Oilers are going to win it all this year. The fact that there's a small majority of "experts" saying this team is the biggest pile of bandwagon-jumping I've seen since the Leafs made the playoffs during the Gilmour years. I like the team too, but it makes me nervous when EVERYONE likes them. (Once again, the Decade of Darkness has scarred me. We're not supposed to be this good, right? I mean, we are and it should've happened five years ago, but I digress. I'm preaching to the choir on here, right?)
