Screw the Oilers. They shouldn't even be in the playoff picture.

With their cap shenanigans and continuing to keep now healthy players on LTIR to remain “cap compliant” rather than making the necessary salary dump trades, I certainly don’t want to see Vegas make the playoffs and take advantage of a $90+M roster. They still could have made salary dump trades after the deadline to be compliant with the part of the LTIR rule that states that players may not remain on IR when they are fit to play. VGK’s attempt to do a salary dump trade at the deadline for a player already on IR showed that they did intend to activate a player following that proposed trade, or the transaction would have otherwise hurt their playoff prospects.
If the Golden Knights miss the playoffs this year, that will be their just reward.
