Game Notes Blue Jackets @ Oilers: Edmonton Will Win DivisionPhoto credit: Gaelen Morse-USA TODAY SportsThe Edmonton Oilers haven’t finished first in their division since 1987 — the longest drought in the NHL, one year longer than the New York Islanders. Seattle also has 17 v. BT teams, Calgary 16, while Los Angeles and Vegas only have eight. — Let’s say the Oilers go 12-5, which is much lower than their current P% v. BT teams, but let’s go with a cautious projection. Vegas is on pace for 100 points, but they only have eight games remaining v. BT teams. — Before you say the Oilers don’t beat teams they should, remember they are 8-2 v. BT teams this season.
