Winnipeg looked super sketchy heading into the playoffs, losing like 9 in a row or whatever, but they still had a good enough season despite that to finish third in the division. Looks like they figured it out when they most needed.
Top to bottom, I'd probably put Winnipeg's Top-6 up against anyone - Schiefele, Wheeler, Connor, Ehlers, Dubois, and Stastny is pretty darn good. Schiefele and Ehlers in particular are criminally underrated. And then Hellebuyck is one of the best in the league.
I didn't know about their defense, but they played well and were relatively effective at maintaining McDrai.
McDavid and Draisaitl weren't incredible, but they weren't invisible. Smith was surprisingly good. For the second year in a row, it's depth scoring at 5 on 5 that cost them, and until they figure that out, feels like this will be the outcome. Winnipeg isn't crap, but they aren't Colorado or Vegas either, IMO, who may be even deeper in the bottom six and defense.
Oilers relied heavily on the PP all year and when there are fewer chances in the playoffs, they just couldn't find scoring throughout the lineup at 5-on-5... And the Jets found a little more.
In the end, the Oilers have the better top end talent in McDavid and Draisaitl, but the Jets have a better Top-6, Bottom-6, goaltending, coaching, and management. Until the Oilers get their depth sorted out, this is the result we can expect to see. They are 1-7 in the Tippett / Holland era and that is just not good enough in prime McDavid and Draisaitl years.
