NHL is probably deploying an army of doctors to invade the Oilers dressing room as we speak to determine if Kane can play before the season ends.

What are you talking about man.. they had a physio spy embedded with the Oilers at the start of training camp! .. if Oilers tried to trade their 3rd rounder for this years draft at the deadline.. the NHL would have voided it because it was already committed to Calgary! lol

If anyone thought that NHL Corp had an anti-Oiler bias.. this is more proof of it.. UN-precidented scrutiny.. Vegas, Tampa, Florida do it multiple times with their most expensive players.. and Edmonton is the one that has to "prove" their case ? This league is so much bull***t they don't even try to not make it obvious.. it started with the draft picks for the GM hire and sealed it with the draft picks for Neil.. they just make up the rules to suit their fancy.. much like their rule book interpretations.. and the continued DOPS charade..

If I were Katz I'd tell the NHL to F off or see them in court, where they can explain their reasoning and past prescedents regarding LTIR to a real judge.. see what happens..

I had the thought last night that since the NHL is now in bed with sports gambling, isn’t the league accountable to fair and equal practices across all teams? Selectively applying league rules to different teams affects real money sports betting outcomes.

I think it's far more likely that management isn't as savvy as the rest of the league and gets caught with their pants down more often.

Also, every time the Oilers get hit with a crap sandwich from the league, we quietly just eat it as we're told to do. Other teams are more likely to rock the boat if they were, say, the only teams required to pay draft picks for picking up fired executives, or to pay draft picks on pro-rated Covid results, etc.

It pays to be the squeaky wheel sometimes. If they come after us here, we have to fight back loudly.

Exactly.. the FBI might even be interested in the trial evidence.. racketeering comes to mind.. like how can an NHL Corp executive be running a league his kid is an executive on one of the teams.. if it were a financial company it'd never be allowed..

Don't just threaten with a law suit and settle.. take em to court and turn the rock over and expose what's underneath to direct sunlight.

If you settle.. they'll just screw you some other way in retribution

Just one of the most selfish players we've ever had. Doesn't keep his mouth shut ever. I am still aghast that there were people talking about him being upset about his role in the lineup in the Stanley Cup Finals - a Finals where in 6 games his stats line is 1-0-1, with 9 shots and 32 penalty minutes.

That was the fully up to speed Kane too in the finals. What a disaster. Maybe we can blame the refs a bit, but going into hits with his stick chest high over and over, the guy was a total dope and took himself out of the series.

If he really did burn us on the LTIR thing too, we should be moving on from him.

Where are these rumours that Kane is to blame for the LTIR investigation by the NHL Corp cabal?
It sounds to me like the NHL just decided on its own .. they don't have any evidence.. or they'd state now.. they just want to go fishing for it.. start an investigation .. threaten people.. and see where it leads.. which they've never EVER done with any other team not named Oilers.. its a a complete fraud.

I think it's far more likely that management isn't as savvy as the rest of the league and gets caught with their pants down more often.


Heavily leaning to Kane and his big mouth and resisting playing along giving the league the opening they needed. He screwed himself and the team over last year too.


Just one of the most selfish players we've ever had. Doesn't keep his mouth shut ever. I am still aghast that there were people talking about him being upset about his role in the lineup in the Stanley Cup Finals - a Finals where in 6 games his stats line is 1-0-1, with 9 shots and 32 penalty minutes.




That was the fully up to speed Kane too in the finals. What a disaster. Maybe we can blame the refs a bit, but going into hits with his stick chest high over and over, the guy was a total dope and took himself out of the series.

If he really did burn us on the LTIR thing too, we should be moving on from him.


Where are these rumours that Kane is to blame for the LTIR investigation by the NHL Corp cabal?
It sounds to me like the NHL just decided on its own .. they don't have any evidence.. or they'd state now.. they just want to go fishing for it.. start an investigation .. threaten people.. and see where it leads.. which they've never EVER done with any other team not named Oilers.. its a a complete fraud.


Friedman on the 32 thoughts pod yesterday said the NHL took a harder line on the LTIR thing before playoffs this year. A couple guys came back before the playoffs, a couple guys missed game 1. The league was intentional. Friedman didn't get into specifics, because he never gets into specifics, but said there was something the league didn't like about Kane's knee surgery halfway through the season delaying his rehab and return. Said the league let it go at the start of the playoffs but reserved the right to look at it again once the Oilers were out. Well, they're out now and the league is back looking.

The Oilers are not great on the management side. I think there's evidence and there's been an investigation. The idea that the league is out to get the Oilers is foolish.

That is ridiculous that we are the first team to get scrutinized here.


If anyone thought that NHL Corp had an anti-Oiler bias.. this is more proof of it.. UN-precidented scrutiny.. Vegas, Tampa, Florida do it multiple times with their most expensive players.. and Edmonton is the one that has to "prove" their case ? This league is so much bull***t they don't even try to not make it obvious.. it started with the draft picks for the GM hire and sealed it with the draft picks for Neil.. they just make up the rules to suit their fancy.. much like their rule book interpretations.. and the continued DOPS charade..

If I were Katz I'd tell the NHL to F off or see them in court, where they can explain their reasoning and past prescedents regarding LTIR to a real judge.. see what happens..

Nope. This is only the latest example of many - going back to when they entered the leage and screwed the Oilers out od Bengt G.

Just going by 2 years of confusion around Kane and injuries. Somehow he turned a hernia in October 2023 into multiple hernias and torn muscles that took him out of the playoffs in May 2024. He seemed to want credit for being a hero playing through injury, but it's still crazy how poorly he and the team handled that injury. As a team serious about winning a cup, I have to think the org was pressuring him to get fixed up with 6 months of time left before playoffs, but it ended up going as badly as anyone could have imagined.

This year, it was absolutely bizarre to hear reports that Kane was pushing to come back before the season ended around the deadline. All this confusion actually forced Bowman to pay extra for cap retention on Frederic, and it brought all kinds of attention from the league on us. How this all went down very much looked like a team and a player once again not on the same page on how to act for the betterment of the team and our chance to win a cup. Other teams that gamed LTIR never had any kind of dissent or confusion around the players injuries. Player and team 100% on the same page the whole way through.

If the NHL wants a real "contrary to the CBA" issue to "investigate" .. how about investigating Ekblad, Schmidt.. and the Panthers Organization on a whole for their use of steroids, HGH, EPO, and all other PED drugs? That's a REAL issue.. interesting that the last two NHL players that tested positive for steroids are both playing on the Panthers? .. were Panther medical staff involved? .. did management know about it? .. if they did know, did they report it to the NHL? or try to cover it up?.. were any other players tested? .. were Schmidt and/or Ekblad ever RE-TESTED after they got popped for steroid use? .. if not.. WHY not? Is the NHL keeping a more focused attention on the Panthers with their steroid use history? .. testing more frequently?

What were the NHL's findings in the Ekblad investigation?
