Both the Sharks and Oilers have seen impressive starts to seasons turn into less-impressive finishes. With that said, the Pacific title remains within reach as the teams face off at 6 p.m. PT at Rogers Place for the final time during the regular season with the season series hanging in the balance.
San Jose ended a long skid on Tuesday by beating the Rangers 5-4 in overtime while the Oilers topped the Kings to get into the playoffs for the first time since 2006. The teams currently have a 46 percent chance of meeting in the first round of the postseason according to hockeyviz.
