Haven't seen @Cloned poll yet so figured I better get the ball rolling with one.
Where will our Oilers finish this regular season, assuming no key injuries?
96 or better gets us into the playoffs most likely. 105-100 gets us 2nd most likely. 111+ should be a lock for first or pretty close.
So lets hear it!
I have 111+. I think Calgary will need a month or two to get on track with all their changes. Vegas is going to have their challenges and cant seem to stay healthy never mind no experienced starter going into the season. Vancouver is starting with some key injuries. LA could surprise. Ducks are a combination of young and old and of course they have Eakins as their coach. Seattle will be better but not so much as to take more points from the Oilers as last season. Sharks are already out of it. So I think the Oilers will start hot, not have the slump they did last season and top out with 112 points.
