What's my goal for the team? I want to be entertained and have something else to do and think about during the hockey season. We're discussing hockey during a workday morning 32 hours before game time. Of course I want them to win tomorrow. But once we get done agreeing we prefer our team to win, what's left? I'm in an all day meeting talking about the Safety Standard Manual and we're going in depth on the difference in training needed for helicopter and fixed wing craft. I need, not want, need to be able to go more in depth than just agreeing we'd like the Oilers win. Ironically, I'm doing a presentation on managing hazard fatigue. I guarantee you I would have been more fatigued had game six happened Saturday night.
Smith was not good against Calgary and the Oilers, in my opinion, are fortunate to have won. That Smith was not good was both predictable and creates warranted concern for the upcoming series. The Fleury argument is a strawman and not really germane to anything that's going on here.

It's notable that the mistakes we've pointed out Holland making are still the most glaring issues as the team goes through the playoffs. The goalie's been weak. Duncan Keith is beyond his best before date and has been the worst defender by far. Hilarious to see people giving him credit for how well Bouchard is playing, rather than giving Bouchard credit for carrying a guy who's clearly lost a step. Archibald is the worst forward, with an honourable mention to Kassian.
What is different? The top end of this team is playing WAY up. Consider - three more points for McDavid and Draisaitl and they're suddenly in the top-40 all-time for scoring in a playoff series. As far as I can tell, the only people ahead of them who didn't make the Finals are 1996 Mario Lemieux (1994 - 27 points in 3 rounds), Doug Gilmour in 1994 (28 points in 3 rounds), and Barry Pederson and Rick Middleton in 1983 (32 & 33 points in 3 rounds). They're scoring at a rate we haven't seen since Gretzky was in his prime. That is amazing to witness. It's made for a lot of fun. But hopefully it doesn't blind this team to reality and make us think the goaltending is fine, or the GM is fine, or Duncan Keith still has it.
"Thinking that a bad team's best players are the reason the team is bad is the "Tambellini re-signing Lennart Petrell" of sports opinions." @Woodguy55
