TWO THOUGHTS

  • Will the new line combinations result in any more scoring? Mike Cammalleri is now on the top line with Milan Lucic and Connor McDavid. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins centres a line with Patrick Maroon and Anton Slepyshev, while Leon Draisaitl drives the third line with Drake Caggiula and Ryan Strome. Cam Talbot will go for the Oilers tonight, while Oscar Klefbom will also dress. Both players suffered from the flu last game.
  • Tuukka Rask is making his first start since November 15th. Will the Oilers catch a rusty Rask back in net?
