There would be nothing better then ripping the hearts out of the Oilers and their fans that way.

I think if the Oilers get challenged they'll do what they do, collapse.
When the Flames beat the Oilers in the playoffs it will be because the Flames are better, not because the Oilers collapsed.
Since the Flames passed the Oilers in the standings, challenged them if you will, the Oil have won 4 straight, out scoring the opposition 18-5. Hardly a collapse.
Your narrative sucks. It discredits the Flames.
