Yup all castoffs pretty much left unprotected for the expansion draft. They are an awesome story and example that hard work and team effort can beat raw talent and skill. I enjoy watching that team. Hockey should be entertaining. The Oiler crowd doesn’t get that though. And rather then take a stand, there will be 17k plus still seated at Rogers Place next home game because these people don’t have anything better to do I guess. It’s the money total at the gate that will dictate if any changes are made. Katz isn’t a passionate hockey owner. He was a fan in his younger years following Gretz and Mess like a friggen lap dog around town and eventually drummed up enough money to buy his toy..
