The Edmonton Oilers have 12 games remaining in the NHL regular season and are in a strong position for a playoff berth and a chance at the Pacific Division title. Their performance in the upcoming matches will be crucial for their postseason aspirations.
The Oilers could potentially finish the season with a record of 7-3-2, gaining up to 16 additional points in the standings. Most of their remaining games are against divisional rivals or non-playoff teams, which could work in their favor. However, they face challenges, including a tendency to lose matinee games and difficulties against young teams like the Sharks and Ducks.
