Good for you, as much as we agree that the Flames need to pick top 5 in the draft the next couple of years, cheering for wins and losing on purpose will always reek of Oilers and their No Good Smelly Fans.

According to that website the Sharks, Kings, and Ducks have the 3 easiest schedules remaining. Bodes well for the chances of the Oilers missing the playoffs.

They all have multiple games remaining against the Flames and Canucks, plus some against the Blues and Rangers.
After the Olympics, the Oilers have one game against Vancouver and tonight is the final game with the Flames.

Kings aren't great this year outside of goaltending.
I could see one of the Ducks/Sharks getting into a divisional spot and even a possibility of both if the coilers continue to spiral and struggle against decent teams.

If the standings I am looking at are correct*, the Oilers are:
One point ahead of Anaheim, who have a game in hand.
Three points ahead of Seattle, who have three games in hand.
Four points ahead of Los Angeles, who have four games in hand (and have just acquired Panarin).
That team could very well be out of a playoff spot a few days after the Olympic break ends.
*I'm looking at NHL.com, which may be official, but is still pretty much garbage.

Seattle's about to win that first game in hand... So it's 1 point back with two in hand for Seattle.

Per tankathon oilers just wasted their 3rd easiest remaining game- only Calgary and Dallas with tougher remaining skeds in the west

Anything good earlier on…?
