3 Stanley Cup Final Series Predictions
A new series needs a new series of predictions. This might be the second year that these teams are facing each other, but this is not last year’s Edmonton Oilers.
Here are my three major series predictions:
Oilers Won’t Go Down 0-3
The Oilers have not lost more than two games in a row for this entire playoff run. Since losing their first two games against the Los Angeles Kings, they have only lost two total games.
They have demonstrated a calmness and maturity that they didn’t have last year. Those attributes will serve them well in the Cup Final. And there is no way that Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl allow their team to be put in the same unfortunate situation.
Evander Kane Will Be Evander Kane
It’s time for the Oilers to raise some Kane…that is, Evander Kane.
Last year, Kane was virtually invisible in the series against the Panthers. He only played two games (Games 1 & 2), recording two hits and one block in 25 total minutes of ice time.
That’s not going to be good enough this year.
Kane seemingly took a backseat during the Dallas Stars series. I suspect he might have struggled to find a way to get physically engaged. There should be no struggles to get physically engaged with the likes of former Calgary Flames forwards Sam Bennett and Matthew Tkachuk.
Stanley Cup Final Prediction:#Oilers defeat the Panthers in 5 Games, hoisting the Stanley Cup in Edmonton.

Oilers Will Get The Last Laugh
My final prediction: the Oilers will win the Stanley Cup. There is enough different about this year’s Oilers that they won’t fail in the final twice. Oilers in five.
