Doesn't matter anyways, the Oilers are going to miss the playoffs for the 13th time in 14 years, nothing is going to change that at this point. Conor mcidiot can score 2 ppg and the team is still too terrible to make it. How does it feel to languish in such futility? I frankly pity all of you Oilers fans.

I don't think it's very difficult to calculate as it's probably based on opponents winning percentage. The Flames and Oilers schedules are typically similar because geography and the main difference is that the Flames have played games within the Pacific division. The Oilers only recently started playing games within the division which has been bad so as they play more games against Pacific division foes that strength of schedule should drop. At the end of the day the Oilers still get the most teams on the 2nd half of back to backs than any other team in the league so I'm at a loss why their fans could complain about the schedule they got.
