While I agree, and think Vegas are the favorites I wouldn't say it's a given they will win. Hill has looked shaky, Eichel and Stone only showed up late in the series. McDrai always gives the Oilers a chance, you can never count them out.
I want the best teams left to ensure the Oilers can't make it all the way. Dallas was lousy against Edmonton last year, but adding Rantanen, Granlund, and the rest of the new cast must give them the edge.
