The only year that the Oilers weren't who we thought was last year and the only reason for that (apart from the usual McDavid/Draisaitl buoying) was a combination of dumb luck and an other-worldly PK that there was zero chance of them ever repeating. And even then they were this close to being swept in the Finals by an actually good team.

They were also a goal away from losing to the Canucks missing their top goal scorer and #1 goalie.
Stars game six they probably win 1 out of 10 times
