It feels pretty great, and regardless of how Tuesday’s game turns out, it is still amazing to see the Oilers still playing important hockey with April right around the corner. Here’s what Tuesday’s playoff-clinching scenario looks like.
Given the Oilers win Tuesday’s game against the Los Angeles Kings in any fashion, they will clinch a playoff spot. There is no way they will not see the postseason. That would be the best-case scenario right now, and given the Kings’ recent struggles, the Oilers have the potential to clinch in less than 24 hours.
