This start for the Oilers is great. Their ascent into hockey purgatory will be a welcomed change as there is a real chance they finish in that hated 9th-10th spot now... and out of true lottery contention. As has been mentioned, they are banking points on an easy schedule and it is not sustainable.
Here's hoping for 80-85 points for the Oilers this season. I would LOVE one goddamned draft lottery where I'm not worried that the Oilers are going to be undeservedly gifted a top prospect.
