Quite true. As I understand it, every playoff game with the Oilers in it will be played as a 4-on-3 OT power play. This is the league's way of humbly apologizing for not calling enough penalties against their opponents in the regular season, and also, of course, for cruelly and maliciously making them play 5-on-5 during regulation time.
Just in case of mishap, the Oilers have already had their names engraved on the Stanley Cup, and any game results to the contrary will be thrown out.
