After laying an egg against the Sabres, will the Oilers get up for the Battle of Alberta?

THREE THOUGHTS

  1. Can the Oilers score more than zero goals? An embarrassing 5-0 result at home against the Sabres on Tuesday saw the Oilers outplayed in almost every way imaginable. Can the Oilers at least make this one close?
  2. Adam Larsson is a late scratch (personal). Brandon Davidson is in.
  3. Have the Oilers finally figured out the penalty kill yet? Three goals allowed in four attempts on Tuesday night, does this thing get fixed anytime this year?
