The Edmonton Oilers had two players go to the All Star Game; Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. At the All Star Game, they were asked what teams they like to beat, or pretty much hate the most.
McDavid responded by saying he likes to beat the Calgary Flames and the Los Angeles Kings. Of course, the Battle of Alberta plays a huge role in that.
Leon Draisaitl agreed with the Kings, but said the Vancouver Canucks is another team he loves to beat. He said that they've kicked them around a couple times to it's nice to pay it back. With both teams set for a playoff run, they could be lined up for a grudge match in the postseason.
It's no secret that the Oilers were a very disappointing team to start off the year. However, now they are one of the best in the league with 16 straight wins, and are repaying everyone who beat them at the beginning of the season.
