EDMONTON -- Patience is a virtue.

And patience is being exercised to it's fullest extent right now with Edmonton Oilers fans. The match-up has been set since Friday night - yet since then the NHL has not released a schedule for the series at the time of this writing.

While fans hold their breath waiting to find out when the series kicks off - the analysis and predictions have begun. One TNT analyst made a very bold claim on what the outcome of the series will be.

Colby Armstrong - former NHLer turned analyst - chimed in on the NHL on TNT Post Game show following the Vancouver Canucks series win over the Nashville Predators.

On the panel Armstrong shared his thoughts very clearly, "I think Edmonton's gonna walk all over them [Vancouver]. I do, I have a feeling."

"I'm going off of what I just watched through this series and what I watched  against LA [Kings] and what Edmonton was able to do to them - they better be ready to roll."

Most people are split on this series - as they should given that the competition gets stiffer the further into the playoffs a team goes.

Fans of both teams will have to wait and see what happens. One thing is certain - looking at what happened during the regular season may be the only evidence of what these teams have done against each other this season, but everybody gets a clean slate once the clock rolls into the post season.
