Edmonton Oilers Plan to Get Even? Team Upset After Big Hit Causes Anger Across the League
The Edmonton Oilers are not going to forget about the last game easily. The message coming from their locker room is loud and clear: they want to get even. After a huge hit that seemed dangerous left fans upset and players shocked, many supporters in Oil Country feel that the NHL ignored a clear attempt to hurt someone.
This hit somehow got away without a major penalty and didn’t lead to any additional punishment, sparking a lot of debate. Oilers fans believe it was a dirty move. Experts say it could have been avoided. Even some former players are questioning if the NHL is doing a good job of protecting its top players. As for the Oilers, the atmosphere in their camp is very tense.
Several players hinted after the game that the league’s choice not to take action was ridiculous, while someone close to the team hinted that this could change how the rest of the season goes. The Oilers remember past events well, and with another game coming up, everyone is asking: are they getting ready to make their own statement?
The NHL says the hit was acceptable in the situation, but many think this is just another case of Edmonton not getting a fair deal. Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl have been targeted many times over the years, and fans are calling for action—either from the league or from the Oilers themselves.
One thing is clear: the next game between these two teams is going to be intense. Whether it’s payback, pushing back, or making a statement, Edmonton seems prepared to respond in a way that will draw the attention of everyone in the hockey community.
And if the league won’t protect them?
The Oilers might take action into their own hands.
