I am sure that the Oilers will once again flip that switch and go up the standings, and finish comfortably in a playoff spot.
Hopefully this will be the year they match-up against a healthy contender in the 1st round. I can't see them getting by Vegas if Vegas is healthy, for instance. They really have to work hard at winning the division this year, but I don't think that will happen. It would be absolutely hilarious if they miss the playoffs, however, after McDavid signs an extension making everyone in Edmonton breathe a little easier!
