One other thing I forgot to mention: Props to the video coach. Obviously he saw a weakness in Quick's game when it game to high shots, as EVERYONE was shooting high on him, and sure enough, it worked like a dream.

He must have also seen weakness in the Kings attack out of their zone and into the neutral. I noticed the Oilers stuffing alot of rushes around our blueline. And they have realized if they keep pressuring them in their own zone, good things happen.

The Oilers should be able to do exactly the same things you described.
On paper, the Oilers have more talent. As a team they are faster than the Kings. They can be more physical than the Kings. Their top 6 players are better than the Kings. I think they are deeper than the Kings. Their defense is better and way more experienced than the Kings. They have better special teams, they score WAY more. The only thing close for the Kings is goaltending where it's probably a tie.
For the Kings to win, the Kings have to play at the absolutely tippy top of their game, Quick has to stand on his head and the Oilers have to not play well. If the Oilers play remotely well, the Oilers should be able to handle the Kings pretty easily in my opinion.
