Usual MO. Ice tilted for first 5 minutes. No EDM shots.

Questionable call in offensive zone for battling hard. 1-0.

It's like they have a script for Oiler games. I don't even watch anymore.

They're much better at home and are clearly getting on a roll here. Much better the last 10 games or so. This is pretty obvious if you watch the games.

Gotta say you really sound butthurt

I'm butthurt because I understand math?

They will probably need to play .650 the rest of the way to make it...that is not very likely considering they have played .519 this far

Kostin fitting right in with the Oilers and Edmontonians inferiority complex. Refusing to have his picture taken with a fan wearing a Flames jersey.

I have a phd in math


They need to go on a roll, something like six games in a row to equalize it. But it's not a long shot for a team that knows they are good in the regular season at least.

Didn't they just lose 3 in a row prior to today's game? They will need P% of .667 to get to 94 points, which may still not be enough to get in. It's a longshot.

Sure you do

6 games in a row sounds good...if the other teams all lose their 3 or 4 games in hand. They need to play .650 hockey the rest of the way. .519 so far

It's a longshot

Really close to onside. Replay shows not anywhere near to close. DeBrusk is an idiot!!

With a third string goalie though. This is the problem with analytics if you don't pay attention to the details.

I think they still have a fair chance.

The only detail that matters is point totals. Even if they won 6 in a row (when they have to yet even win 3 a row all season), they would then still need to play out the season with a P% of .583 to get to 94 points, .604 to 95 and 0.625 to 96 points.

They still have a mathematical chance, but facts and figures say its not a fair chance and would be a longshot by any reasonable perspective.

You're talking about a team that won the President's trophy last year, minus a couple players. And they'll add a scoring winger to the mix after the break and their goalies. I disagree, I think it's still a fair chance.

East is probably closer to 100 points...dont bother with this guy though he just wants to be obtuse and not look at the numbers.

A team going from .519 hockey to .625-.650 on a dime (their starters missed like 4 games and weren't playing very good anyway) is the very definition of a longshot obviously

Possible? Sure... definately a longshot.

I mean Detroit is ahead of them on points percentage...I assume people would agree they are a longshot

By the way, last year means absolutely nothing for this years standings or chances at playoffs. They already have 4 more losses than they had all of last year.

They have played 3 more games than the the current last place wild card team and 3 points back.

It's going to take them to play like they have not all season for the rest of the season, and at least 2 or 3 teams to falter down the stretch.

Every Oiler player knows if we get scored on, very next shift go down take a dive and the refs will put us on the powerplay. And of course they score. ####ing NHL is rigged!!
