The Oilers, despite pouring 42 shots at Anton Khudobin, 31-12 over 40 minutes, have their noses pressed up against the playoff glass, begging to be let in but running out of time. The Oilers have five games left–Anaheim and San Jose here, Vegas, Colorado and Calgary on the road. Last time two Oilers did it was 1988-89 when Jari Kurri had 102 and Jimmy Carson (remember him?) Highlight reel, babyMcDavid’s 40th, off a Draisaitl pass, was so good you could watch it 40 times and never get bored. Draisaitl (47) and McDavid are the first Oilers duo with 40 since Kurri and Carson in 30 years ago when they had their 100-point years.
