They will probably face more obstacles in that it's hard to imagine them going injury free in their forward group (already a key injury on defense) again and the schedule will be more difficult and teams in general will be more prepared to face them as they won't catch anyone off guard. Oilers fans and media are going to have big expectations and it's easier to win when you are having fun without the burden of high expectations but the fun will end for them next season. If Talbot has any struggles or gets injured for a while they will be in massive trouble.
