Edmonton Oilers (17-8-3) 1st, Pacific vs

Edmonton begins a four game homestand atop the Pacific Division. Can they bank some more points?

THREE THINGS TO LOOK FOR

Craig Anderson is scheduled to be back in the net for the Senators. Anderson hasn’t played since November 25th, can the Oilers find any rust in his game?
PERSSON IS BACK: Welcome back Joel Persson. Persson spent six games in the AHL, scoring five points. He’ll be on the third pair with Kris Russell tonight. Can he step in seamlessly?
PLAYING CATCH UP: The Oilers are still in first in the Pacific Division, but everyone has gained ground since Edmonton last played on Sunday night. Can the Oilers take it to a seventh place Atlantic team?

Let’s. Go. Oilers.
