Reddit almost broke from the reaction when the league-worst San Jose Sharks who only had one win on the season in just their previous game beat the “Stanley Cup Favourite” Edmonton Oilers.
Last year, the Oilers, who are led by arguably the two best players in the game, talked about “Cup or Bust” but perhaps didn’t realise “Bust” was a 50/50 option!

Flames fans (like myself) took special joy because even though our season has also been terrible and our team sucks, we’re *still* ahead of the Oilers and no one was predicting us to be Stanley Cup contenders!
The Oilers have become coach killers and one of their most successful coaches may be the next casualty…
