Oilers Can Wrap up Home Ice in Playoffs with Win over Canucks
A win would secure second in the Pacific Division and help Edmonton avoid a first-round series against Colorado.
- Tonight, the Edmonton Oilers conclude their regular season by hosting the Vancouver Canucks, aiming to secure second place in the Pacific Division behind the Vegas Golden Knights.
- With 91 points, the Oilers seek a win to avoid a first-round clash against Central Division powerhouses like the Colorado Avalanche, which leads the division with 119 points.
- Captain Connor McDavid leads the league with 134 points, while Evan Bouchard has 92; Zach Hyman has returned from injuries, though Leon Draisaitl remains sidelined.
- Should the Oilers lose, they risk falling in the standings as the Anaheim Ducks and Los Angeles Kings both trail them by one point heading into tonight.
- After losing to the Florida Panthers in consecutive Stanley Cup finals, the Oilers look to improve their seeding in what some characterize as a "pillow fight" Pacific Division.
