And 4 since 1989.

Man Kane has 80 points? What a monster. He's still absolutely a top 5 forward in the league.
I mean, given how bad the Hawks are, might earn some Hart votes, because look at what he's doing on a bad team...you know.

Though, yes, Kane is amazing. HHOFer to be imo

Do we go back to Smith or stick with Koskinen? I would go Koskinen, give Smith a break, but I know Tipp loves Smith.

Not overly confident in this game, Chicago has won 3 in a row. Lehner likely starting. Boys better be ready.
It’s really not likely at all

Lehner was traded to Vegas...

The OIlers will probably seal the play-off spot if they go 8-7 in the last 15. Given the separation with teams chasing them, it would take a gargantuan effort and good luck from the likes of Nashville, Winnipeg and Arizona to catch them. If OIlers only win half of their games, they literally would have to win 12 out of 15 games, some of which includes games between the teams.

8-7? What kind of talk is this? I am hoping the Oilers go 12-3! ;)


Seriously though, I do get your point.

You and the guy who said we need to play Gagner today should watch more Trade Deadline TV.

Oilers have 10 home games left and 5 road
Vegas has 4 home games left and 10 road
1st in the Pacific is ours for the taking.
But are we not a better away team?
Pretty sure our special teams are much better away from Rogers

The Oilers haven't won 4 in a row since the start of the season, correct? Another test.

Similarly I wonder if hearing the PP is near 30% will get in their heads. At least I love the idea of other teams scared shitless to foul the Oilers... sure, the refs are usually biased in your favour, but what if they do make that call?
