Edmonton is hot garbage against good teams. They just are, their blueline looked slow against the Leafs, and their second line terrible. Again it comes down to McDavid and Draisaitl, You also have Smith literally having a career resurgence .922 svpct as a 39 year old, its his best year since 2011. But they're riding him like he's 25 year old.
This team just feels like a team that's feasted on bad teams, but will fade down the stretch, and if they make the playoffs completely fall apart when depth becomes important. As Bone Saw said to Spiderman in the cage "You're going nowhere" and any decent team in the playoffs will add on "Hey Feakshows, we've got you for 4 games of playtime"
