There is only one situation in this universe where any Oilers win is a good one, and that is if the Oilers win directly results in the Flames winning the division, conference, league, home ice, or a playoff spot, with the Flames having no more control over their own situation.
There is no situation where the Oilers beating the Flames is a favorable result if you're a Calgarian or an actual Flames fan.
As hard as it is to swallow, the Flames can sink to 29th all on their own, without needing "help" from the Oilers these remaining games. Keeping Edmonton out of the playoffs is also a highly desirable result, again, if you're aware of even the faintest history of the Calgary/Edmonton rivalries.
