Will anyone be able to stop the Knights in the playoffs?

[archangel2]

Knights look to be firing on all cylinders and getting healthy. Will they just steam roll to the finals?

West is still a bloodbath.

But yeah they're a strong contender

 

[Fatass]

Setting up to be Knights vs Oilers in round one. Conference champ comes out of that series?

 

[hangman005]

Cassidy and his damned turtle

Don't underestimate Dallas and the Avs on the otherside

Or Dallas or Colorado. I'd say those are the top 4 teams in the West. EDM maybe a bit behind the other three due to Holland's shitty deadline.

 

[Zalos]

Edmonton will stop them in the first round if they meet there.

 

[SillyRabbit]

Oilers will beat them in Round 1.

No chance McDavid and Draisaitl are getting bounced without winning a single series.

McDavid and Draisaitl: Hold my beer

Dreams are still free right?

 

[Three On Zero]

Oilers will beat them in Round 1.

We’ve seen this show before, Winnipeg and Chicago say hi.

 

[Eternal Leaf]

Adding Hertl and Stone to this lineup will be insane.

I think only the Stars and Avalanche can put up a strong fight. Oilers depth is weaker and I don’t think McDrai is enough over 7 games.

and that is the part that should scare fans. They are adding 2 legit top 6 guys. Their depth is nuts

 

[Osakahaus]

Someone is gonna do this to Vegas on ice to Hertl or Stone

and Vegas will cry wolf that someone tried to "injure" one of their players.

 

[Chips]

Yes, especially if their injury issues persist.


People got all into the conspiracies but there was always a good chance they’re missing key guys or otherwise less than 100%

I mean if someone did that, there is no crying wolf about it, someone tried to injure on of our players.

 

[Osakahaus]

I mean if someone did that, there is no crying wolf about it, someone tried to injure on of our players.

and you know what the reality is?

31 other fanbases will not feel bad for a team that is circumventing the cap every year that their cheating got hit with an injury, intent or not.

 

[PaulD]

We’ve seen this show before, Winnipeg and Chicago say hi.

And Oil lost to team that went on to win Cup the last two seasons.
Oil have their best group yet.
Knights vs Oilers in first round? Wow.
But I think Oil will pass Canucks for first. Avoiding Knights in first round.

And I don't care about the 31 one other fan bases who have invented this cap that we are circumventing because its obviously not one with the PA or the NHL.

Don't include me in that.
Its about winning. Do everything you can.
Whining about winners is for losers.

Almost as insane as the Nucks adding Lindholm

Except Canucks, Predators, Stars, Avs, and Jets are all pretty scary too.
I think the Kings might be the only one we might be able to pencil in for a 1st round loss.


But yeah, its a f***ing bloodbath this year.

 

[TheOrganist]

Any team with a defense like that and such good two way forwards is always a legit threat to win playoff gauntlet. Is Stone expected back for Game 1?

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

When fully healthy, they have Karlsson on the 4th line. I don't think anyone in the NHL can compete with their depth.

 

[OVO16]

I still got the AVs coming out of the West so that's my team to beat Vegas. But regardless, its a Toss up. Vegas when fully healthy is a force

Both the Avs and the Stars are both better than the Oilers so I don't see that to be the case

For the sakes of the media and every other fanbase, I hope he's not

 

[CycloneSweep]

They got bounced by Chicago ones in the -1 Round for Covid and then the next year got swept by Winnipeg. They have done it before lol
