Second-place squads face off when Oilers meet Wild
Technically, the Edmonton Oilers are still in the hunt for the top spot in the Pacific Division.
Heading into Tuesday night's road clash with the Minnesota Wild at St. Paul, Minn., the Oilers (42-25-6, 90 points) sit second in the Pacific Division, seven points behind the Calgary Flames in the chase for top spot. With only nine games remaining, though, it's a long shot that Edmonton will wrestle away the division title.
