Oilers media takes a jab at Dakota Joshua and the Vancouver Canucks
The intense rivalry between the Vancouver Canucks and Edmonton Oilers has peaked in this year's second round, sparking heightened tensions both on and off the ice.
The Canucks have been out of playoff contention for some time now. Despite this, their rivalry with the Oilers remains intense, evident in both teams' social media jabs, particularly directed at Dakota Joshua of the Canucks.
The mutual animosity between these teams has piqued curiosity about how it will culminate.
Joshua, who secured a four-year deal with a $3.25M cap hit, received a substantial raise from his entry-level contract. His on-ice performance has clearly irked the Oilers, leading to media scrutiny of his new contract.
Oilers' media figure Tyler Yaremchuk openly predicted that Joshua's contract would likely not run its full course.
"I will make a bold proclamation. Dakota Joshua gets bought out of that contract before it's over." -

Joshua faces plenty of skeptics to silence this year as he aims to surpass his career highs from the 2023-2024 season. Can he exceed 18 goals this season?
