Nah. They could possibly make it out of the Canadian division, but even that's not a guarantee if the Leafs are playing well. They'll also get absolutely smoked by any of the elite U.S. based teams. Depth and sound defensive play wins Cups, and the Oilers don't have either of those things.

Also as stated above, the refs pretty much put their whistles away come playoff time and the Grease won't get anywhere near as many PPs as they do now.
