'We're not done': Oilers focused on deep playoff run

'We're not done': Oilers focused on deep playoff run

CBC
Sunday, May 15, 2022 3:28 PM GMT

The Oilers aren't settling for the second round.

Edmonton moved on to the next phase of the Stanley Cup playoffs with a 2-0 victory over the Los Angeles Kings in Game 7 on Saturday night, but Leon Draisaitl said the group's work remains unfinished.

"It feels good, but we're not done. This isn't the end. We haven't reached anything," he said. "It feels good to do it with this group. We've been through stuff all season — for a lot of years, even — a lot of ups and downs, a lot of negative stuff. It feels great to have this feeling right now.

"Being down 3-2 [in the series], going to L.A., grinding one out, coming home and finding a way — it feels good."

WATCH l McDavid's 2-point effort leads Oilers past Kings in Game 7:

After starting the season on a hot streak, the Oilers struggled through December and early January before firing head coach Dave Tippett on Feb. 10 and replacing him with Jay Woodcroft, then-head coach of the American Hockey League's Bakersfield Condors.

Edmonton finished the regular-season second in the Pacific Division with a 49-27-6 record and earned a home ice advantage.

"We've faced a lot of adversity all season," Draisaitl said. "There were a lot of ups and downs, a lot of people who counted us out long before the playoffs started. And we grabbed it."

It's the first time the Oilers have advanced in the playoffs since 2017 when they beat the San Jose Sharks in a six-game first-round series, then fell to the Anaheim Ducks in seven games in round two.

Since then, the post-season has been full of heartache for hockey fans in Edmonton.

The Oilers didn't make the playoffs in 2018 or 2019, then lost to Chicago in a play-in series on home ice in the bubble during the COVID-condensed 2020 campaign. Last year, the Winnipeg Jets swept Edmonton in a four-game first-round series.

The team took those experiences to heart, said captain Connor McDavid.

"It's just using lessons from previous mistakes," he said. "We have made those mistakes in the past and we didn't shoot ourselves in the foot tonight, which was obviously positive."

McDavid — who led the NHL with 123 points in the regular season — has continued his dominance in the playoffs, posting a league-leading 14 points (four goals, 10 assists) through the first seven games. He had a goal and an assist, and registered more than 27 minutes of ice time in Saturday's crucial victory.
