The officiating is the only thing that would worry me about playing Edmonton. That top line is definitely good, but if you can shadow Mcdavid and limit his chances, you'll probably win that series in 6 games or less.
Not sure how much you can limit McDavid's line. To beat them, your 4 lines combined just have to outscore his.
