For some reason, I don’t fear the Oilers as much as Nashville. While their offence is much more dangerous, their defence is a dumpster fire compared to the Preds.
Looks like everyone isn’t giving us much a chance in this series. That’s fine, let all the pressure be on the Oilers.
I feel like the media, analysts, Oilers fans etc think we’re the Kings or something. The Preds played a very hard physical series against us, plus they had a red hot PP coming into the playoffs, and we matched the physicality and the PK stepped up immensely and shut them down.
If we limit the penalties and play a physically tight game against McJesus and Draisatl, we should be good.
