Washington Capitals Fans Are Transitioning to Cheering For The Oilers

As the Washington Capitals are unlikely to make the playoffs this year, some of their fans are considering supporting a new team. The Edmonton Oilers have emerged as a popular choice among these "bandwagon" fans.

The Oilers have had a strong season, thanks in no small part to their superstar Connor McDavid, who has been in excellent form.

Although it may be difficult for Capitals fans to change their loyalties mid-season, supporting a team like the Oilers could bring fresh excitement and novel experiences for fans.
