The only thing I can say for certain is that the 2 spark plugs, Johnny and Chucky looked like they were motivated in the pre-season. If they stay motivated Calgary will do alright. The defense is good the goaltending is better. Lindholm and Backlund are good at their center ice ice roles so if Monahan has a resurgence the team will be good down the middle. Lots of ifs however if the bus drivers are going it tends to drag everyone else along.
Here's hoping Sutter has that big hockey brain focused on beating McDavid and Draisaitl. (The rest of the Oilers aren't a problem.)
