I don't see any way in hell they get through Calgary, Vegas, St Louis/Colorado, Florida/Tampa, potentially.

No way in hell with that tandem, defense, and dead weight in the bottom 6.

But also Connor's lack of commitment in his own end playing into it as well, which he showed in that last series. No one up North will pin him for it cause they don't have the nuts to, but he contributed to their losses also.

I'm willing to bet anyone who thinks the Oilers will win the cup

as usual I'm sure its just the boasters and people looking to get a rise...nobody will actually take me up on it

15 to 1

you don't seem very confident....6% chance of winning?

Make me a straight up Avatar bet if you actually think they will win. You have to agree to post on there though even when the Oilers are eliminated in humiliatingly fashion

Did you really just put Calgary in that list? You’re trolling.

I am willing to bet...you can't just dictate whatever terms you like

if you actually think they will win you should be willing to risk more than 6% that is weak


Straight up avatar bet...if the Oilers don't win the cup I choose your avatar...vice versa

There are probably people in YEG that would bet their life savings on it at this point.

If you were wise you'd use this time to take advantage of their propaganda campaign and a hot start against a line up of bad teams in favourable situations.

Lots of money to be made here, boys!

I have heavy money on the Stanley cup this year. None on the oilers lol. I’ll make you an avatar bet but not on the oilers winning. Maybe on Alberta team going furthest or something?

Flames are a better 5 on 5 team for sure...my worry would be the year of whining about playoff penalties

I could see the league changing the rules just for this series while the others continue like old time hockey

it would certainly be a series though

Lost in all the excitement

the Yotes are 0-10-1

Are they going to be setting records this season?

Pretty much everything in the last few pages is extremely premature.

And yes, the Flames would be a very tough out for the Oilers. And they would have more than a small chance. Sutter is about two tiers above Tippett on the hierarchy of coaches, and as he has demonstrated a few times over the years, that counts for something.

This team is his project, it was raw when he inherited it, and he's getting a full season now to work out the kinks and grit and making this roster the machine he envisions it being.
