The Edmonton Oilers finally lost their first game of the preseason, in a rematch with the Winnipeg Jets on Sunday. A lot of experts expected it as much since many believed that the Oilers couldn’t maintain their momentum. Some had even said that the Oilers were eerily similar last year in the preseason where they were dominant before their fateful season kicked off.
The significant difference between this year and last year is that this team has a massive chip on their shoulders. It all starts with the captain of the team Connor McDavid and how he approaches this upcoming season.
