Gooning it up won't be successful. Maybe 15 years ago, but now the reffing in the playoffs is much less permissive than it used to be and special teams dominate a series. There will be no hesitancy to give the Oilers endless powerplays if the Kings act like goons, and that is just what the Oilers would like.
Surprises always happen in the playoffs, but with the way the game is refereed now, until they meet the Avs I think they're the favorites. I'm guessing we get a repeat of last year in the conference finals.
