As the Edmonton Oilers get set to kick off another season with the best player in the world on their roster, TSN Hockey analysts Craig Button and Mike Johnson discuss whether or not anything less than a Stanley Cup this year will be a failure for the club.

Yes… yes it is.
Hands down, you have the world's best player, and arguably the worlds second best player.
Stop the semantics… it should objectively be considered a failure.
Were the depth players Tampa Bay had identified as difference makers before they won a cup?
What are the numbers 5 on 5 for the Oilers in the playoffs the past few seasons. They may stand out more than anything.
draisaitl mcdavid brown
hyman nuge kane
holloway mcleod foegele
janmark ryan lavoie
our offensive depth is fine lmfaoooo its the defensive side we need to worry about
If the Depth can score at 5on5 ez cup win
lol the oilers don't have a Vasilevskiy or a Hedman, but yes, if they don't win a cup while Draisaitl and McDavid are still under contract it is 100% a failure on the part of the organization.
well. they are going to fail. edmonton cannot beat vegas.
