Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer · The Cult of Hockey's David Staples (9/11/26) · 11 Sep 2026 podcast

So uh based on heart I was I was thinking they would not, Bob. voice-verified

The voice-verified

I don't I think that's unfair to the people who have heartfelt concerns about this. voice-verified

Yep. voice-verified

And and believe that's the thing. voice-verified

You know, there w when you go back and you read those stories, you know, there's apparently there was some nefarious older man in his forties who who was setting up this whole thing. voice-verified

Like that i it's not mentioned once in the verdict. voice-verified

I don't know if it was mentioned at trial, it wasn't at the trial, but it sounds like this like sinister plot to g to get this young woman to do what she did and and that was nowhere in the trial. voice-verified

So th so the first media reports were really kind of s frightening, scary, uh damning of the players. voice-verified

So I think a lot of people heard that and it made a big impression on them. voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

Yeah, but you know, we've done I've I did a poll on this, um and um an I saw another poll on it and I was I was actually surprised. voice-verified

So Twitter's a pretty hypercritical place, so I would expect kind of the least amount of support for for uh Foremant in there. voice-verified

And and uh in the one poll uh seventy five percent of the fans were okay with the oil signing 'em. voice-verified

This was on t and this was on on X, again where people voice-verified

Are really critical. voice-verified

And on and on mine it was more like 60 percent. voice-verified

So somewhere between sixty and seventy percent of people in the kind of that environment supported this decision. voice-verified

I think in the like if you did a poll of Euler's fandom, like people who buy especially the people who buy season tickets who go to the games who are in it, I think it would be like eighty, ninety percent of people would support this. voice-verified

So there's there's some who don't. voice-verified
