Edmonton Oilers
Connor McDavid won another Art Ross with 138 points, Leon Draisaitl crossed 400 career goals while posting 97 in an injury-shortened 65-game year, and Evan Bouchard pushed into the Norris race with 95 points, leading all defensemen in scoring. But the reigning Western Conference champions were stunned in the first round by a young, upstart Anaheim team that took them out in six, a shock for a group that had been in the Cup Final a year earlier. The summer reshaped the supporting cast: Darnell Nurse and his contract were moved out in a cap dump that brought back young defenseman Shakir Mukhamadullin, mid-season pickups Jason Dickinson and Connor Murphy were both re-signed, Ryan Shea was locked up longer term, and veteran Frederik Andersen arrived to steady the crease. The core is elite and the window is open; the bet is that a cheaper, deeper blue line and better goaltending finally push them deeper.
