Hate to say it, but I could definitely see Edmonton going all the way next year. Not sure who I see in the West taking them out. Maybe Dallas in a rematch?
If Ekholm's play slips at all, that's a big dent in the Oilers' armour. Especially with Deshernais to pick up the slack.
Us, with a healthy Demko and Petey, we are going to bounce their assHate to say it, but I could definitely see Edmonton going all the way next year. Not sure who I see in the West taking them out. Maybe Dallas in a rematch?
Oilers barely made it passed a banged up Canucks team who were playing their 3rd string goalie and without their leading goal scorer Boeser in game 7. Pettersson was playing with Mikheyev & Hoglander/Lafferty as wingers lol. Canucks probably still would’ve won if not for the missed double minor on Hughes & the Soucy suspension. Healthy Canucks team with the solid forward additions today would sweep the Oilers.
The Oilers were butter soft and got softer.
Anyways...
Hoglander - Pettersson - DeBrusk
Heinen - Miller - Boeser
Joshua - Blueger - Garland
Sherwood - Suter - Podkolzin
(Di Giuseppe, Aman)
Hughes - Hronek
Soucy - Myers
Forbort - Desharnais
(Juulsen, Friedman)
Demko
Silovs
??
Deep and hard to play against. Maybe shuffle VD, Juulsen, Friedman in and out and add a D if need be during the season. I have full faith in Myers with this coaching staff. He was amazing in the playoffs.
f*** that team and those obnoxious fans. There isn't a worse fanbase on these boards. Now they go bring in Bowman? That's the cherry on top. If the hockey gods exist they will curse that team next year.Hate to say it, but I could definitely see Edmonton going all the way next year. Not sure who I see in the West taking them out.

edmonton is very likely the president's trophy favourite so no cup for them
