Its A Tough Time For Edmonton Oilers As They Have Lost Their Key Players 

All the way back to the day I gave the car keys to a group of teenagers named Taylor Hall, Jordan Eberle, and Ryan Nugent Hopkins, a dynamic I never understood here in Edmonton.

It wasn’t a team so there were a few elites and the rest were just “help”.
