Plus...
- League awards the Flames the third round pick for the Neal-Lucic trade (then, Neal scores 2 goals in the play-ins, so their fans can't even claim there's no way he could possibly have scored 2 more goals had they played out the full season)
- Flames become the first team to win one of the play-in rounds in Edmonton, becoming the first team to win a postseason series at Rogers Place (with Talbot, Lucic, and Rieder all contributing, as well as previously unsigned Oilers draft pick, Erik Gustafsson scoring more points than any Oilers d-man)
- Taylor Hall and Arizona win their play-in series while using the Oilers' dressing room
- Vancouver wins their play-in series, meaning the Oilers are the only Canadian Pacific Division team to not win their series in Edmonton
It's been a hell of a week and a half up in Edmonton.
