Sol, your current Oilers remind me of the mid 1980s Yankees. Back then, at the same time the Oilers had a dynastic team that was winning Stanley Cups and a threat every year, the Yankees had a very good offensive team that was a bit short on pitching. Hence, we cheered Don Mattingly to win batting titles and an MVP award and Gold Gloves (of which he won 9), and we cheered Ricky Henderson to win stolen bases titles and runs scored titles, of which he won a bunch. We did that because that team never won anything else as it just did not have good enough pitching, and pretty much everyone knew it. It was still fun to watch, for example, Don Mattingly homer in a MLB record 8 consecutive games in the summer of 1987, although while setting that record, he ended up sustaining a back injury swinging for the fences that ruined the rest of his career, which likely would have been Hall of Fame calibre but for that injury. That HR streak was the high point of his career.
Similarly, while sipping the rum and smoking the weed, you need to appreciate the exploits of McDavid and Draisatl because they give you something to root for and keep things exciting, even if it will never result in a Cup being won, which is the way it looks for this team as presently constituted.
Only 1 team gets to win the Stanley Cup every year, so if you are one of the other 30 teams, you just want the team to keep things exciting, and the Oilers are doing that.
