Come away with fewer than 8 points and the Oilers WILL miss the playoffs.

Can't see them beating Detroit or winning in Colorado. They won't win all three against Vancouver. They SHOULD beat Minnesota, but, saying that, they lost both back to back games vs the Wild in December, so they could lose this one too. If Kipper has an off game they might beat Calgary, but I would'nt bet on it.

Best case scenario, they beat Van twice, Minn, and Calgary. I don't think they can do it though.

For sure, gut check time for the Millionaires club. I believe that to make the playoffs the oilers will have to win or gain a single point in a minimum of 12 games in the last 19. I still say that these losses to to the bottom feeders are very damaging. Winning against clubs that are playing as well as Colorado and Detroit will be very difficult.

The next 2 against Minnesota and Calgary are virtual must wins

True. His players need to do the same as well.

It's gut check time. Those 3 games against Vancouver are going to be huge.

2 good things about those games against the Canucks. One, they suck just as much as us lately and two, we have their number.

And 3,

Even though we already have won the season's series, another win or 2 against them would only add to the bragging rights I now possess.

I just hope the team works hard and doesn't have too many stupid penalties or giveaways.
