The record is absolutely relevant. They are 6-1. You don't do that without your entire team contributing in some way. I am not saying the bottom 6 is solved. They need to score more. That's obvious. But they aren't completely crap either. There needs to be adjustments clearly but they basically changed out almost their entire bottom 6, they have new coaches, new systems, new style of play. There is going to be growing pains.

I think what other people are saying here is that McDavid & Draisaitl have been so good that it masks the flaws in the lineup. Some hot goaltending and a scorching hot powerplay, likely at both playing at levels that are unsustainable, have also made the team look better than it is. The fact we've mostly played B-level teams or below also has helped greatly.
I'm not saying you shouldn't be excited about the 6-1 start. That's a really good thing for this team. But there are large parts of this team that aren't really contributing to the wins. The bottom six forwards have not been a factor at all. They're getting owned whenever they're on the ice, and that's a major concern.
Sticking our head in the sands about the concerns with this roster isn't really helpful. I really hope that the Oilers aren't feeling content because of the record, because anyone watching critically should see that there's some huge holes here that need addressing if this success is going to be anything besides fleeting.
