## Resource

In 1986, the Edmonton Oilers Stanley Cup reign ended abruptly following a controversial playoff loss and a Sports Illustrated article alleging widespread cocaine use among the team. Despite denials and investigations, the scandal persisted, culminating in goalie Grant Fuhrs suspension in 1990. However, the Oilers rebounded, winning another championship in 1987, demonstrating resilience in the face of adversity. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
