    Probably not the answer you’re looking for, but…

    I’ve caught most of their games for the past few years. 0 this season.

    Honestly I’m still really bummed that they hired Stan Bowman as GM at the beginning of the season. It soured me on the team, and on the NHL more broadly. For survivors of sexual assault, I think it’s an unpardonable situation.

    I don’t want to feel that way, but, I can’t help it. Just can’t watch the games anymore, even if they’re free. Bowman’s hiring was a message of empowerment to abusers.

      I agree. I think hiring bowman was such a bozo move. I think it will curse the team for years to come, but there is also not much positive in this world so watching Oilers every so often makes things slightly better.

      Thanks for replying!
