I don't think Colorado is all that engaged. Just chugging along here.
Whereas this is game 7 for the Oilers.

This. It's really honestly pathetic on every level.
When a team has 19 points on you and +52 in goal differential, you're not in their class.

They're still battling for their playoff lives, they'll need to play every game like it's game 7!

Yup. This is nowhere near the up-tempo high pressure game that the Avs played against Calgary. The intensity of that game was almost playoff-like, whereas they don't seem all that invested in this one and look like they're just sleepwalking through the game.

Which is amazing as they're 2 of the 5 most exciting teams

Not sure about that. Oilers keeping it simple. Capitalizing on opportunities.
I wish the Avs would give us an idea of what their consistent effort looks like.

The Avs are good, far better than Edmonton, but they have weaknesses. Any team can beat them.

Well, let’s this play out in the 2022 playoffs.
Avs vs Oilers.
I am hoping for this matchup.

If they play it will give the Avs all kinds of bad habits that Calgary will exploit. Sort of like how the GKs beat them.

Not happening. Oilers won't be good enough to be the #2 wildcard team and would need to get through the Pacific division.

Uh, I hope the Oilers miss altogether but they are above the #2 wildcard team right now

Not to defend the horrific Homerism, but he was referring to McDavid/Mackinnon, not Oilers/Avs.
Which still isn’t true obviously, McDavid has done nothing EVER in his career to prove that he’s elite.

He has said multiple times the Oilers team is elite
