While this current season hasn't been picture-perfect for the Edmonton Oilers, it has produced scoring depth the franchise hasn't had since the early 1990s.
In a season that's had its challenges, one thing these Edmonton Oilers keep showing people is that it's hard to stop this offense, which is producing beyond its usual suspects.
When Jack Roslovic scored his 20th goal of the season on Saturday against the Anaheim Ducks, he became the fifth Oiler to score 20 goals this season.
Heading into Tuesday's contest against the Seattle Kraken, Vasily Podkolzin and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins are now four and two goals away from hitting the total themselves, respectively.
Seven players hitting the mark would represent a scoring balance this team hasn't had in over 30 seasons.
The 1991-92 campaign was the last time at least six Oilers scored 20 goals or more. On a team stripped of most of its dynasty-era parts, the Oilers still found a way to make it to the Campbell Conference final. Eight players total hit the mark, and Vincent Damphousse led the way with 38 goals.

While there's not much time to join the club this season, considering he's scored in three straight, there's little sign that he's slowing down as he continues to impress in Edmonton's top-six forward unit.
From a team aspect, if Edmonton is once again able to outscore what ails them, then the road to the Stanley Cup will run through Northern Alberta this spring.
