10 Predictions for the series:
1) Oilers will put on a display of embellishment that will embarrass the 2011 Canucks
2) Oiler fans will twist themselves into pretzels, justifying it
3) refs will bite, hook line and sinker, at least for the first couple games
4) Kassian will charge and head hunt, injuring at least one Flame in the first 2 games
5) Draisaitl will spear someone with the end of his stick blade
6) the league won't review either infraction
7) the Oilers win game one, due to shenanigans, and the Flames losing their cool, but the Flames overcome and eventually take over the series
8) Oiler fans will be an embarrassment to hockey and to Alberta
9) Ron McLean will redefine insufferable
10) Flames will advance
