The Edmonton Oilers and the Los Angeles Kings meet three or four times a regular season, depending on the league’s division rotation. The NHL schedule is built by relationship rather than drawn each year: division rivals are the only pairings that can meet four times, and which of them get the fourth game rotates from season to season.

Are the Oilers and Kings in the same division?

Yes. The Edmonton Oilers and the Los Angeles Kings both play in the Pacific Division of the Western Conference. A division is eight clubs, so Oilers vs Kings is one of the 28 pairings that division is made of — and division rivals are the only opponents the NHL ever schedules four times in a season.

What is at stake when the Oilers play the Kings?

A win is worth two points in the standings, and a loss in overtime or a shootout still earns one — so a game that goes past regulation puts three points on the table rather than two. Between the Oilers and the Kings that swing is felt twice, because the top three clubs in the Pacific Division qualify for the playoffs automatically and the first rounds are bracketed by division. If the two finish level on points, the NHL separates them on regulation wins, then regulation-plus-overtime wins, then total wins, and only then on the points each took from their own head-to-head games.

Can the Oilers and Kings meet in the playoffs?

Yes, as early as the first round. The opening two rounds of the NHL playoffs are played inside division-based brackets, so two Pacific clubs can be drawn together straight away, and they can meet anywhere up to the Western Conference Final.

Where can I follow the Oilers and Kings for the rest of the season?
