For the guys who aren't familiar with the Oilers style of play, its pretty simple:  outwork the other team!  They are a very deep team with no real superstar, although they have more leadership (Peca, Pronger, Smith, Smyth) than most teams could dream of.  Definitely not the most talented team, but all four lines contribute, they block an unreal amount of shots, and have, amazingly, been getting GREAT goaltending from Dwayne Roloson, a career backup.  I said it all year, the Oilers would be top 5 in the league in if they could just get some goaltending- not great goaltending, just even average goaltending.... and here they are!

Having said all this about the Oilers, all the remaining teams are young like the Oil, work incredibly hard, are deep, and will do what it take to win.  Should be a great remainder of the playoffs......

Yeah Edmonton is a hard working bunch but Anaheim is also hard working and they have been chillin for a week so my pick is Anaheim and on the other side i Like Buffalo. Sorry Edmonton even if i am Canadian My City Montreal is the last team and will be the next team to rbing the cup to Canada then again the rest of Canad dosent consider us part of em but thats another story for another time.
