No, they're actually better.

Aside from that painful 2 on 0 demo, I think they're a little better.

And just in time thank God. Maybe they can win enough to be out of the top 5?

Hopefully. Buffalo's on a pretty bad skid as of late too, that always helps. Now if Carolina can really turn on the suck...

[Walter Reed]

Bit of a lucky bounce gives Oil a 3-1 lead. Derek Roy scoring.

Don't care either way.
Edit: I'd be lying to suggest otherwise, I will be disappointed if they don't get a top 2 pick.

You're stressing over nothing. Do your heart a favor and just forget about the playoffs. We're not going to make it in this year..and even if we somehow claw our way in, we're not going to do anything worthwhile anyway.

Enjoy the games on an individual basis, watch the kids develop, and think big picture. The playoffs this year are irrelevant.

So the Oilers just won the cup, right? How Quinn and Remenda are calling this makes me think they must have.

[Mony]

5-1 Oilers. Thank god they're gonna pick up two.

[Walter Reed]

Break up the mighty Oil !
5-1 with a minute left in the game.

[Travis Munroe]

Did they just win the stanley cup? That " FIVEEEEE TO ONNNE" was so unbelievably overboard it isn't even funny.

[browna]

Isles should have their points revoked from Calgary the other night after that score line.

[trackercowe]

Wait a minute........... Does this mean we get a free appetizer at Japanese Village tomorrow? OMG! Time to break out those balloons and streamers a few months early this year!

You would too if you only called 7-8 wins in a season.

Hahaha .... how true ....

[Mony]

5-2 Oilers. Islander doesn't even celebrate because they know they're gonna lose to Edmonton.

[Walter Reed]

Now 5-2 at the buzzer.

[getbak]

6 of 8 points with Nelson alone behind the bench.

'Hawks were absolutely AWFUL, turning the puck over and over, but, Richards scores the GTG from an impossible angle, and the team escapes with a win, on a sweet Keith to Sharp pass...Dallas deserved better than the loser point, but, that's what they got.
