It's Cup or Bust This Season as Edmonton Oilers Conduct Captains Practice
As the boys continue to trickle into Edmonton, it would appear that Connor McDavid is putting his words into action.
Jack Campbell was recently sent a picture of him with his two dogs in tow, as he prepares to board a plane for Edmonton to begin training for next season.
The boys are back in town! Connor McDavid and the entire #Oilers team are expected to participate in Captain's skates in Edmonton today. And so begins the work towards winning the sixth Stanley Cup in franchise history! #LetsGoOilers
It is, of course, Captain Connor McDavid who will lead these skates for Edmonton Oilers, who has said that this season is cup or bust for the team.
There is no question that a lot of people within the organization are serious about making the most out of their window of contention in order to potentially win a Stanley Cup in what may be their last season as potential Stanley Cup contenders.
The manager of McDavid's team, Ken Holland, has loaded up the team with talent and here he is organizing practices for the players.
As a result of their 50-23-9 record this past season, the Oilers were knocked out of the 2nd round by the Vegas Golden Knights and they are hoping to correct that error this season.
