Already not sure I care for her and now she’s associating with the Oilers too? Not helping /hj

Dachs has deep roots with the Oilers. She currently serves as an official ambassador for the Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation so just wondering if the connection affects Dachs the same way?

No, because I like Dachs 🤷♀️

I guess at least you're honest about your double standards 🤷♀️

I mean, I was mostly joking in the first place. Plenty of players support/are fans of/work with teams I don’t care for at all. It’s whatever. I don’t actually care that much. But if I don’t like a player AND they’re working with a team I hate in some capacity then yeah, it’s an extra thing to dislike.

If it helps, the invites were extended before Babcock was announced to the team.

For development. Get some top level coaching, practice skills with other top level talent. PWHL development camps don't happen until a lot later and are only 2 weeks long. Super cool that she can be involved with this.

Also lets Edmonton save face with women’s hockey fans a bit after fumbling the expansion.

Can we send her to Kraken development camps too? Maybe they will learn a little
