Beat the Canucks and put them out of their misery...
Then we can get on to having a first round playoff matchup of pure epic-ness.
Oh...and after these 3 games, the Oilers official suck again.

Oilers suck, Canucks suck, Flames suck.
And this back-to back-to back is totally wack. Is it really that hard to schedule effectively?!?! Bring back more interconference games, chop it down from 8 in-divisions to 6.
Back-to-back-to-back!?!?!?!
WTF?!?!

For the first time in weeks, I agree with you.
Eight games against division rivals has only caused me to grow tired of seeing them rather than learn to hate them.
I'd much rather see some variation in opposition. More Eastern teams would be good.
As for this miniseries, I'm hoping for 2 Vancouver wins and 1 Edmonton win, no OT, obviously. That would suit me nicely.

Chicago and Detroit had a three game set earlier in the year. The NHL should be able to avoid those types of scheduling quirks. Home and homes are great but Detroit, it's not as easy to have them on back to back nights considering the distance to other Western cities...namely the ones outside of the Central Division.
Bad start for the Oil last night in that mini-series with Vancouver. The Sharks are coming on big time of late...one point out of 8th place in the West and they have games at hand on most of the teams fighting for 5th through 8th place. This is definitely no time go into a mini slump with 7 teams fighting for 5 spots. A lot left to be decided over these final few weeks.
