We have heard a lot about how the Oilers have been better defensively under Woodcroft. In the 3 games against the Flames since he was hired it hasn’t really shown.
Flames have outplayed the Oilers in all 5 matchups this year and have won 3 straight. Oilers have scored at least 5 goals in 4 of those games though so it is not all great as the Flames did it twice (scored 9 in those games).
I think this one comes down to Markstrom vs Smith so I like our chances.
