2013-2014 Edmonton Oilers...

this should be an easy preview to write,but the Edmonton Oilers is an enigma to me... they have bountiful riches in talent,but they also finished dead last,and next to last in the NHL,to collect three straight number one draft picks... Tyler Hall,Ryan Nugent-Hopkins,and Nail Yakupov,along with the last player to score eight points in a game-Sam Gagner power a high powered offense... the Oilers are a team that is young and inexperienced,but improving every year... the team defense is anchored by Ladislav Smid,Nick Schultz,and Denis Grebeshkov,but gives up too many shots,and yet,is improving every year... in net is Devan Dubnyk,a young,and improving goaltender,who honestly beat the Red Wings for his first career NHL win,in goal,after going zero for seven,in his first seven starts... he is very,very quick,and is improving in net... the fact is the Oilers are an improved team,and is improving in every way...(get the point!!!!!) IMPROVING... can they make the playoffs this upcoming season??? very possible to be fighting for a playoff spot,but they could also be struggling,depending on their start to the season...
