The PK has been interesting because they have been really aggressive. This tends to be a very effective strategy in October, because most PPs aren't in full gear yet. So pressure causes them problems. Once PPs start to react to the pressure, their lack of talent on the blue-line will start to show.
I wonder if the Oilers special teams have been so good in large part because all the teams they have played thus far are really bad. Most terrible teams also have terrible special teams.
