That they are.
While winning is clearly better than the alternative, honest question, have they played a legitimate playoff team yet? In my opinion, they only play 2 playoff bound teams all October.
I'm interested in where they'll be sitting following November, when they play Pittsburgh, St. Louis, San Jose x 2, Colorado x 2, Dallas, and Vegas.
Also, anyone care to explain the "Continuation" rule? Both Oilers announcers on 630, and the guys on Lowe Tide on 1060 both said the whistle went before the puck crossed the line in the New Jersey game. If that was the case, why did it count? I've never heard of the discussed, but not explained, "Continuation" rule before and couldn't find much about it via Google.
