That said, Winnepeg suck as well. Their team defense is just about as bad as Edmonton's and their goalie is somehow worse. Their FWs suck just as much as EDM, they are just older and in their prime so they don't suck as much overall as a team compared to Edmonton. That said, they are on a back to back flying in from Vancouver. The weather is shit around here these days so there is no direct flight and planes are delayed as shit as well. They probably went Van -> Calgary -> Edmonton and will get in late tonight.
There are a lot of reasons to bet on the Oilers tomorrow but it may all be counterbalanced by the fact that they suck to historical levels. Take from that what you will
