The Edmonton Oilers are coming off a tough lose in Vegas, 4-3 final. As the Oilers now trail the series 3-2.

Stuart Skinner and the Oilers, allowed 3 goals in just under 2 minutes, the team did make a comeback but fell short.

Now, fans and players look to an important Game 6. As Connor McDavid (the best player in the world), takes on Jack Eichel (one of the best in the league). The only game on Sunday night I might add, as it is scheduled at 10 p.m. ET.

This is beyond ridiculous, yes it is the normally scheduled time for the Oilers to play, but when it's the only game on Sunday and it's a thriller game six, why not have it in the afternoon or early evening.

Garry Bettman and his scheduling team make no sense, when you're trying to grow a market you shouldn't make people wait all day for the only game on.

It was understandable in the Los Angeles-Edmonton series, due to the Lakers/Clippers. But why does Edmonton have to wait till 10 p.m. Especially when it's the only game scheduled for Sunday night.

The league needs to fix their scheduling process, as well figure out better ways to be on the ball. Not pushing everything till the last minute and hoping for the best. Or having the only game on be not on till after 10 p.m. ET.
