The Kings have back-to-back games coming up, and two wins for them combined with an Oiler loss against the Stars would actually take the Kings within 3 Points of the Oilers with the same amount of games played. In two days. Just imagine the glorious fire drill that would break out in Edmonton if that were to happen.
Of course it sucks to have to rely on a big run from the Kings, as well as the Blues and Preds, as it would likely affect the Flames too, but it would obviously be in everyones best interest for the Oilers to choke completely and fall ass first out of the playoffs.
