Its one thing to pick Calgary to beat an 8 seed, it's another type of delusion to pick the Oilers to beat the Avs. I had Dallas winning that series, and I had the winner of the short bus series getting obliterated by the winner of the central.
The Avs had an easier time with Edmonton than they did with St Louis. Just like this year Dallas will have am easier time with Edmonton than they did with the 2 recent Cup winners.
The Flames were frauds, much like the Canucks were this year. And so are the Oilers. There's a reason they get clapped every time they face a contender.
If the Oilers beat Dallas (with no shenanigans like an injured Otter) you can tell me to shove it where the sun don't shine and you'll be right. But until then their 2-12 record in this span against legit teams speaks for itself.
Dallas is the measuring stick team, and since the playoff started its been obvious whoever came out of the central was going to be the favorite. But much like the Leafs losing in embarrassing fashion, it seems like it's just that time of year where the Oilers lose to one of the big dog teams again after fooling everyone into thinking they're not frauds.
I'm ripe for a dish of crow on this one if I'm wrong. But until the Oilers beat a team like Dallas I'll die on the hill that they're frauds
