LA are pretenders for sure, but the Oilers could be worse. Regular season masterminds only to turn into fodder when the going gets tough and defensive hockey has to be played at a maximum level. I totally believe in the Oilers head coach, but I still find that they will succumb to the same mentality traits as the past couple of years since these weaknesses are ingrained in the genetic code of the Edmonton Oilers. You can hide the holes of your club like Skinner and Nurse as some examples for only so long, in the playoffs when you play the same team four, six, or seven times, those holes keep getting pried open due to video scouting and whatnot. I have the Kings winning in 7 games this year because I argue they will do a better job using Danult as a shutdown centre in their 1-3-1 schematics.
Additionally, I have LA winning because it just seems tough for a team to play other three teams in a row and not have the losing team not learn a thing or two. Don't get me wrong, the Oilers can absolutely win this series since I have it going seven games, but too much of their play this season seems "too good to be true," and those teams tend to have the toughest times as there is not adversity to face and everything is coming easy lowering your guard.
