And literally everything fell the Oilers way this past season. They got the worst western conference playoff team in the first round because the Knights lost to the Ducks on the last night of the regular season. Then they lucked out in round 2 because they didn't have to face Thatcher Demko for the entire series and Brock Boeser missed the all important 7th game. Then they were about to go down 3-1 to Dallas when, inexplicably, Dallas just decided to quit playing. So, a hell of a lot went right for the Oilers to get to where they did. I don't think the stars will align and have everything go right for them again. Oiler fans conveniently seem to forget how much went right for them in that playoff run.
