The Oilers are just simply playing better than the others are. The McDavid/Draisaitl combo with stingy defensive play is finally getting the results the hockey experts were expecting from the Oilers all these seasons.

Not to mention actively cheering/hoping for injuries, which used to be frowned upon by the masses on this board. But goes along with all the childish nicknames.
Just watch the hockey for what it is.
