So the Oilers have another underwhelming 2020.. They finish with 81 points and show few positive signs other than Mcdavid, Draisaitl, and Nugent-Hopkins dominating offensively. Holland says f*** it as he has been watching too many conspiracy documentaries about the world ending in 2020. So he trades off every valuable asset the Oilers have to bring in the best players possible. Down to last 3rd round pick.
They decide to roll only 2 lines and 2 D-pairings because according to Holland "Depth is for pussies".
The experiment works out incredibly well !!!!
Unfortunately the good times only lasted about 2 periods into the regular season, until the players got gassed and the other team skated circles around them.
The team ended up setting an NHL record for best 1st period splits, but also the worst 3rd period splits....
The team finishes with 41 points. Mcdavid wins the Hart.
After Holland sees that the world isn't ending, the team decides its time to rebuild....
