It was a complete win for the Oilers: McDavid made history, four teammates scored, and Edmonton collected two important Western Conference points. A…

Saskatchewan enters its regular-season finale with its postseason ticket already secured, yet the most important part of its playoff picture remains unresolved. A victory over Edmonton would keep the Roughriders in the West Division bracket, while a defeat could send them across to the East side for the opening round. The stakes are unusual because Edmonton has already locked up first place in the West. The Elks will host the Western Final on November 7, giving them a reason to protect key players rather than chase another regular-season win. Saskatchewan, by contrast, has everything to gain from a strong performance…
