In a pivotal moment during the game, Draisaitl finds himself in possession of the puck at center ice, only to be unexpectedly slew-footed, leading to a turnover. To the dismay of the Oilers and their fans, the turnover quickly translates into a goal against them just eight seconds later.

This swift turn of events raises eyebrows and prompts questions about the fairness of the game.

Adding to the intrigue, the Oilers have yet to enjoy a full two-minute powerplay opportunity throughout the entire game. This lack of advantageous situations on the ice amplifies speculation among fans and analysts alike.

Some are left wondering: is there a bias in the NHL against the Oilers' impressive 16-game winning streak? As conspiracy theories swirl, it's crucial to examine the facts and context surrounding each play and decision made on the ice.

While it's tempting to search for explanations beyond the game itself, it's important to remember that hockey, like any sport, is filled with unpredictable twists and turns. Whether there's any truth to claims of bias remains uncertain, but what's clear is that every game brings its own set of challenges and opportunities for teams to overcome. As the Oilers continue to navigate the ups and downs of the season, they'll undoubtedly face both adversity and triumph along the way.
