I think the "oilers are bad" is largely wishful thinking (though based on a long history of experience, so not without merit). Just this year, 2024 playoffs Oilers, they look good relative to other teams.

It's frustrating, but Dallas is still winning the series at the current moment, and they have played better for longer. Oilers are fast, and when they click, it's overwhelming, but Dallas is the better team averaged out. They will likely win, but it won't be the steam roll we all wanted.

Careful now. They will put on the "wall do shame" for this.

Lol.
