It's last game of the season, they are in the playoffs.The season is over.
I'm derailing this thread but the thoughts I have are this:
I'm worried about the playoffs. Gregor and others have piped up saying that the Oilers are deeply skilled team and they will go deep again this year but I'm looking at this lineup and I'm like... I think that might be an over estimation, I'm a realist..
We really do miss Holloway.
I don't think we miss Broberg as much.

We miss players that haven't played the whole year as if they are expecting our team to completely fail to live up to the hype.
This has been one of the most disappointing seasons to watch that i can remember. Very few players on this team looked like they had fun this season. Thank goodness for an insane year from Drai or we would have just missed the playoffs all together.

Sometimes adversity is a good thing. It takes away any over-confidence and maybe focuses the team a little more. They clearly only cared this year about what they lost last year. Now they finally have a chance to go get it.
So long as the goaltending holds...

I hope that switch flips in a few days, and doesn't require the biggest form of dealing with adversity in a season for guys to finally get their heads straight again.
