The Edmonton Oilers will be playing the Calgary Flames in the second round of the NHL Playoffs. After the Flames beat the Dallas Stars last night in overtime. Being from Edmonton myself I can tell you there isn’t a team that Edmonton Oilers fan dislike more the Calgary Flames. So there should be no lack of emotion in this series.

This series will start this Wednesday down in Calgary. This will give the Oilers 3 days off between games. Hopefully this will give the bumps and bruises. Most importantly Leon Draisaitl. He was clearly playing on some sort of leg issue. Even while injured he still played 22:38 on Saturday and looked good, so a healthier Draisaitl is only going to make this team better.

This Will Be A Close Series

The series between the Edmonton Oilers and the Calgary Flames is going to be a hard fought battle. The two teams played a very even series. Through their 4 meetings each team won 2 games and the overall goal differential was 16-17 for the Flames.
