We are likely going to get bounced in 5 or 6 games anyway. Barring a few week period we have the worst goaltending of any playoff team. We have no chance in hell.
|
The more they play the more I genuinely believe this is a good team. Goaltending is still a concern for sure. But this is the best even strength Oilers we have seen since…2006 probably? The last two years it was pretty clear we won many games due to historically good powerplays, and scoring from two guys. Now when the whistles disappear in the playoffs, I like our chances a lot better from all lines.
Another thing is that this is a high scoring year for the NHL and its not just coming from the powerplays. It’s why a lot of players are having career highs and breaking 100 points. A higher scoring game means that the outcome of the game is less dependent on luck and more dependent on skill. This is why in basketball, where scoring happens every 20 seconds, you can build Bulls, Lakers, and Warriors dynasties by simply having the best players. A higher scoring league bodes well for the Oilers having Connor and Leon.
I like our chances at a run this year much better than the last two.

Delusion is great but even in 06 our worst GM ever understood you can't win without a solid number 1. Hence Roloson. We're screwed. Smitty craps the bed in game one. Then we're stuck with Koskinen in game two. He gets lit up then what?
|
Calling people delusional, how nice.
Yes just need a solid number 1 goalie like cup winners Antti Niemi, Matt Murray * 2, Cam Ward, or Jordan Binnington.
I’m no fan of our goalies, it’s another Holland failure, but you can win if a crap goalie gets hot at the right time.
Clean house or bust
