The Edmonton Oilers' Most Important Game of The Season is Tomorrow
The Edmonton Oilers are gearing up for what could be their most important game of the season on Thursday. The team will face off against the San Jose Sharks with a chance to secure home ice advantage for the first round of the playoffs. The Pacific Division title is also up for grabs, which adds to the significance of this game.
In order to win the division, the Oilers will need to defeat the Sharks while the Vegas Golden Knights lose to the Seattle Kraken in regulation time. This may seem like a tall order, but the Oilers have been playing some of their best hockey of the season in recent weeks.
Securing home ice advantage for the first round of the playoffs could make all the difference for the Oilers. It would give them an edge over their opponents and could help propel them to a deep playoff run. As such, Thursday's game against the Sharks is a must-win for the team, and fans will be eagerly watching to see if they can come out on top.
