Oilers fans want Darnell Nurse traded after he calls out his own team
The Edmonton Oilers find themselves on the outside looking in as they were handed an exit key from the Chicago Blackhawks. While the team proceeds to let the rest of the western conference enjoy their dressing room, one Oil wasn't happy about the way his team played and let it be known.
D-man, Darnell Nurse wasn't shy with his comments and called out his team for a lack of intensity. Only one problem, you call out your team, you easily turn into the local villain.
The most intensity we had was in our exhibition game against Calgary - Darnell Nurse following his team's exit
Sure, the battle of Alberta is always intense but some are considering this a shot at team leadership and boy, the comments are hilarious. Turns out Oilers fans aren't big fans of Nurse's game.
Darnell Nurse is the first thing that needs to happen. IQ of a peanut. The Oilers need many changes.

Is there a more poetic way to end our season than Darnell Nurse missing the net with a slap shot?

Jeff Petry the day he became a full time Oiler > Darnell Nurse today.

Nurse $5.6M AAV
Petry $5.5M AAV
The Oilers need to be better with their money, and that's another fact.
How long do you wait to have this guy hit the net or an 5M+ outlet pass?
AAV plays in evaluation. https://t.co/jUWMM85URB
Well Oilers fans, when we all calm down, we can focus on the fact that Darnell Nurse will be asking for $8M/yr pretty soon.

Inconsistent would mean that DARNELL NURSE played smart hockey SOMETIMES. Hell no he didn’t. Had a defensive mistake EVERY SHIFT. Does anyone remember what Chris Kunitz said when asked about wheat her he would come to Edmonton? He said we ain’t winning with these defenseman.

trying to use sarcasm on twitter is like Darnell Nurse defending

"Too many little mistakes that just can't happen at this time of year. We never really got our A-game going. Without that, this league's too good."
