Rosters
Edmonton Oilers
Reasons the Oilers will win the cup
1. They have Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl in the middle of their primes. This is the last year that they, combined, will cost 21M. The Oilers will work extra hard to get this done this year
2. They're hungry from last year. They were but two goals away from hoisting Lord Stanley's cup. That has to be a motivation for Knoblauch, and the rest of Oil Country
3. This team may not be as fast, but we have experience. Experience is key to success
4. McDavo's tired of waiting. He wants one.
