After failing to win a postseason game in 2021 and failing to win the play-in series against Chicago in 2020, the Oilers need to change something in 2021-22. Being a good regular-season team is a tag they are starting to get.
Teams like the Toronto Maple Leafs have been called fake playoff teams before. They are great during the regular season but always fail to do anything in the postseason. Another example used to be the Washington Capitals until they eventually did win their Stanley Cup.
Fans will not know what type of team the Oilers are until the postseason.
