He's not wrong that the Oilers can beat anybody if they commit to team defense and get goaltending, because they have stars who seem to be able to score at will.
Problem is they don't have the goaltending, and they won't commit to team defense.

EVERY team can beat anybody if they play well and get good goaltending.
NO ONE can beat everyone every night.
The Oilers haven't even demonstrated that they are AMONG the elite teams in the league, never mind head and shoulders above them, like Staples is implying.
