This series to me showed the difference in teams.
The Oilers are a team that are accustom to winning games when their goalie isn't great. It took them a few seasons but they have learned to shake bad goals off and to keep coming. At times so far Smith was amazing, at times Smith was just OK and at times Smith was bad. The Oilers kept finding ways to come back and more times than not when they weren't getting the saves, to find a way to win. Who ever they play next, it will be tough but I feel like they have a legit chance regardless if they get amazing goaltending or not.
The Flames on the other hand. Last year Markstrom wasn't that good and they missed the playoffs all together with the bulk of this years team already there. This season Markstrom had a career year. Blowing his career average numbers out of the water, being a vezina nominee and the Flames cruised.
Playoffs hit. Smith gives the Oilers up and down goaltending but is better than Markstrom and the Oilers cruise to a 4-1 series win. Markstrom is below average the whole series, even pretty lousy in their 1 win and the Flames get smoked.
What I found interesting also is during the season and going into the playoffs, it was all about the Flames. Flames are so deep, they are so good, goalie is so good, etc, etc. Then I look at the standings. Oilers had lots of long injuries to key guys, Flames had none. The Oilers had up and down goaltending Flames got vezina nominee goaltending. The Flames finished only 7 pts better than the Oilers, the Oilers only had 1 less win than the Flames and the other 6 pts the Flames had on the Oilers were Bettman loser points. So maybe the Flames weren't that much better than the Oilers.
|
I think it's fair to say that the Flames were a better team than the Dave Tippett Oilers, not so much the Jay Woodcroft Oilers. The Flames didn't go 2-11-2 at any point in the season. After the coaching change the Flames and Oilers were actually the top 2 teams in the league (at least points wise), with the Oilers going 26-9-3 and the Flames going 26-8-5.
|
Tippet was fired Feb 11, that was 3.5 months ago. So who cares if the Flames were better 3.5 months ago or the bad stretch the Oilers had after Christmas. Doesn't mean anything now.

You did. You cared. You literally said, "during the season...it was all about the Flames".
Oilers Goal Differential
17/18: 234 GF / 263 GA (-29)
18/19: 232 GF / 274 GA (-42)
19/20 (82 game pace): 257 GF / 254 GA (+3) in 64 games
2021 (82 game pace):269 GF / 235 GA (+34) after 38 games
