Yamamoto regresses, loses his spot in the top 6, and scores less than 10 goals.
McDavid breaks Sittler's record one night. |

New year my friend. Perfect time for some optimism. - freelancer
True that. |

Fanboy stuff. You lost me at “ Mikko Koskinen receives Vezina votes”. |

Looks like it's that time of year where I've gotta counteract your optimism again
Yamamoto misses significant time to injury and produces ~0.5 pts per game.
The special teams dip substantially removing the special teams buffer they had last season.
Bear struggles in his sophomore year and finds himself on the 3rd pairing for most of the year.
Russell plays the majority of the team's games as Jones has an up-and-down year.
Kassian retains his spot on the 1st line, but not by merit of bringing top-6 level play- no one below him shows well enough to take his spot.
Goaltending is the sore spot most predict it to be as both Koskinen and Smith see a noticeable dip in save percentage on the PK.
Neal shows exactly why we should've bought him out this past offseason by being a defensive liability even in a reduced role.
The likely 3rd line (Ennis-Turris-Pulj) stays together for much of the year and don't perform nearly as well as many entirely-too-hopeful Oilers fans predict (but they're still noticeably better than Sheahan's version).
The team struggles mightily for a stretch mid-season, but only manage to secure their spot in the playoffs in the final 3 games of the year. |

#1 Mikko Koskinen receives Vezina votes
Bold indeed |
|
|

As for bold predictions:
Nurse addresses his biggest weakness and covers the front of the net with renewed vigor as his pairing with Barrie necessitates such an improvement.
At one point, Benson gets a shot in the top-9 and impresses enough to get penciled into that spot next year.
Ryan McLeod joins the team late in the season and steals the 4C spot from whoever the incumbent is at the time. He proceeds to score a key game-winning goal in the playoffs.
Patrick Russell finally scores a goal. |

You pick Russell to score a goal and call mine unrealistic |

I've always hated the shoot for the stars and then hit the moon mentality.
You are not aiming small on these ones.
Edit: My one bold prediction, Barrie sucks and loses his spot to Bouchard. |

Russell is well-versed at scoring into his own net..
So he can score |

Well Sean, at least the covid / isolation / no hockey, depression hasn't gotten to you, like the rest of these posters.

These are not bold predictions, hate reading this kind of garbage so I will add to the pile. Oilers will lose every game against the Sens, Stuetzle outscores McDavid 21-3 in the matchups. Koskinen will steal the job from Mike Smith by March and Tyson Barrie will finally get a pp point in the last game of the year. |
