At this stage I'm more likely to follow the Oilers games in the playoffs, not so much to cheer against them, but just for the McDavid show. Hate him as much as you like, he's still the best offensive player I can recall ever watching, and he's tapped some new level of motivation this year.
I think an Oilers-Bruins final is pretty likely, and I just hope the Bruins have enough depth to prevent the Oilers from taking it (I think they do).
Such a disappointment the Flames fell apart in the off-season. A couple of tweaks to last year's roster and we'd have a proper BOA. Instead we have to just hope this year was voodoo and we don't have years of cap compromised decline/rebuilding to look forward to.
