Have people not learned anything over the last several years? The Oilers are not a powerhouse by any means. They’re a mediocre team with terrible depth and sub-par D and goaltending propped up by two star forwards and a PP. If you can make the Wonder Twins’ lives miserable and limit their chances, they’re very beatable.

A team living on their PP was true in the past. It doesn't apply anymore.
This year's Oilers were 5th in GF% at 5v5 and 8th in goals against.
This team could do some damage if they get an average to above average performance from Skinner.
