Unlike Knoblauch and Paul Maurice, I believe in momentum. I also believe in the Oilers, as I've stated more times than Leon Draisaitl has conjured clutch goals. And finally, I believe in the Oilers on home ice. About a week ago, I stated the Oilers were a team of destiny.

They became the first team to overturn a three-goal deficit in a Stanley Cup Final game and win since 1919. And they did it on the road after being humiliated 6-1. If you want resilience, if you want a team that can defy the odds while overcoming a hurricane of adversity, Edmonton is the poster child.

The Oilers improved to 19-2 in Games 4 through 7 under Knoblauch, and Calvin Pickard is 7-0 in these playoffs after he rescued Stuart Skinner and the collective. The writing is on the wall, and it illustrates a Game 5 Oilers win.
