Not sure about that. Maybe the players did because players generally have very high expectations, but I doubt management did, if they gave you the honest answer.
Some fans did and I've made a lot of money in the last three years from stupid Oiler fans - getting close to a thousand dollars including this season. However, the rational Oiler fans didn't expect the playoffs this year. I will say i did expect them to top the Flames this year and that is looking very uncertain season. I do totally expect that the Oilers will see the playofs before the Flames do, but that won't be this year or maybe next season.
