Bieksa said that the media in Edmonton is raw, dumb and dead which is why he refers to them as the Edmonton meat.
Bieksa did not hold back after the media has been highly critical of the Oilers especially defenseman Darnell Nurse who has been struggling this season despite making $9.5 million.
Since Bieksa is an ex player, he is often seen on the broadcast defending the players that are often bashed if they are not at the top of their game.
